GRAB YOUR YOGA MAT AND CHECK OUT THESE YOGA FESTIVALS.
Yoga festivals are the ultimate getaway for yogis and yoginis. It’s exactly what you’d imagine: extreme amounts of yoga, beautiful & authentic people, delicious food, awesome music, spiritual awakenings, and typically a great backdrop where all this occurs.
So where do these yoga festivals happen?
I thought you’d never ask…
Before we dive into the below list of killer yoga festivals, we want to touch on a few points.
I have not personally attended all of these festivals. I know what a fraud… But I follow them and many of my yoga teacher friends teach at them. They are on my yoga festival bucket list to attend.
Most of these festivals are pricey, like out of our price range pricey. That is also why I started Yoga Fun Day. We wanted a festival that everyone and anybody could attend on any budget. However, many of these yoga festivals offer a work exchange/ volunteer program that offers free tickets or similar perks. We will deff point this out for you! In fact, I have volunteered at Wanderlust Festivals, Wanderlust Stratton Vermont.
If these locations are simply not an option for you, research local yoga festivals. Many towns host small events that will provide the same experience sans the famous yoga teachers & wild prices and Yoga Fun Day Miami is coming right up. Make sure to save the dates, grab your girlfriends and get ready to get your downdog on at one of these amazing yoga festivals.
With all of that said, let’s get into it yogis. I will warn you – these festivals are swoonworthy and will have you researching every which way to get your cute butt there (been there, done that). Don’t blame me when your down dogging and up dogging in the beautiful mountains, just thank me instead…
