“You came one day and as usual in such matters, significance filled everything.”
Welcome to our world.
Nomads and gastronomes. Rockers and roamers. Drifters and dreamers. The reclusive, the wise and the wild. Welcome. You have come to this place for a reason. Step in and linger. Explore far and wide and be curious. We invite you on an escapade like no other.
We seek to romance you. To dazzle and inspire, nourish and reflect. You are going on an all-guns-blazing tour of the arts and heart-stopping delights that we have chosen to import to our paradise corner of the world.
A celebration of the arts for the curious, we invite you to open your eyes, minds, hearts. It’s all for you.
We wanted to create a place where you can keep reality at arms length, where experience is everything: a microcosm in the Wilderness where experiences jostle and all your senses are thrilled.
Rise early to swim, OM or paint. Get up and take a dance class, stand tall with the yogis, bask in the shade of a tree with your dearest and then sing for hundreds on stage. Radicalize at a debate, write a love poem, wander the woods, butcher a deer. Dine fine beside a deep, freshwater lake, learn taxidermy, take a trip through the forest on an electric bike. Fire arrows straight and true, win the egg and spoon race, roll in the glittery grass, play cricket in a dress, dance yourself sillier and sillier and then lose your marbles in the Night Realm. Leave your stepping stones behind. This is a space for you to truly be free. Show your serious side the door, switch off your phone and really change gear.
Wilderness is a community. It has a pulse and a beating heart, and thousands of colourful heroes coursing through its veins. Its population is the lifeblood. You are vital in this temporary community. Take your trip with wide eyes and an open heart; be mindful of coincidences. They make sense.
We want to raze your walls, throw open boundaries and push your buttons. We will challenge and enliven you. Nourish and excite you. It’s about expanding the horizons, stretching your grin wider and reveling in the utter joy of living. Your wild delight joined end to end for four long days will warm the whole year.
Wilderness is seven years young. The world we have created for you continues to morph and expand in ambition.
Now that you are here, settle in.
When you know, you just know.
Peace all the way out,
