June 21, the winter solstice; a light in the dark, a spasm of energy as the black of winter closes in.
The period where dimensions drift past each other, brushing tautly at their restraints as they subtly pollinate across planes. The trick is to not bend, we will not conform to the whims of the seasons and their masters - preaching sleep and rest in a time of empty blackness.
Join us as we turn the shortest day of the longest, opening 24 hours from 11am Friday June 21 overnight til Saturday the 22nd of June.
We fill the time with experience, experimentation and revelry - think dark winter energy, the alternative and unknown. Music, art and food all night long, we drink in the release of our newest wine and beckon to the dawn. This is a free event, welcoming and open to all, some of the experiences are ticketed, read on below for the program and information, plus tickets to Earth and the Solstice Feast. Not all is explained however, surprises are in wait for the bold and daring, wrapping themselves in the night.
