Just seen a Facebook post about 'Something new in the horizon… Stay tuned.' So hopefully a line up announcement for the 2025 edition.

as I said 18 months on here, body and soul are moving to a weekend retreat model as there main thing.
The June summer solstice dates as still listed on socials.

Does that mean no festival and completely different model or hybrid/in between? They got seriously unlucky as 2022 was still recovering from COVID and 2023 clashed with BTP, I think there would be decent demand going forward for the original model to be kept somewhat, would be a shame to lose quite possibly the best festival in the country.

The thing I mentioned might be completely a different thing, like the promised Xmas event a few years ago that didn't materialise. The festival I think is still going ahead on the dates 20th - 22nd June 2025.

Festival gone from ballinlough was last I heard and that for last 18 months if not more the plan was to pivot to wellness retreats. 2022 and 2023 did very poorly, barely 3500 on site in 2022.

The social media feeds was about a women's retreat in November, so I think the festival is still pipeline for later.
