VISION & TRIBE CONNECT


Dreamweavers Rising holds a vision of empowered, inspired community. It is more than music, more than art... it is a movement of Heart.

Dreamweavers Rising is a community weekend to rest, recharge, be amongst lush forest, good people and inspiring activity. This investment is a mutual love affair where we get to share this beautiful land and all of our soul juice to build strong hearts and strong community. We can confidently say, that the offerings will fill your cup and strengthen this ever growing tribe. When we come together, we empower, inspire and uplift one another.


THE TIME FOR STRONG COMMUNITIES IS NOW. THE TIME FOR DEEPENING OUR EARTH WISDOM, OUR OWN INTERNAL POWER AND PEACE... IS NOW. We choose creative arts to amplify this connection, because we came here for joy, and joy positively effects the entire planet.

LET THE FOREST SOOTHE YOUR SOUL

We are honored to host you at our Mudbrick Home, in the hills, off–grid and surrounded by nature, serenity and exquisite birdsong. It truly feels like coming home to your family in the forest. Affectionately named Lyrebird Retreat, our home offers a reset from the noise of life ... a haven to remember and express your soul song. It is the MOST EXQUISITE gift to your soul waking up on this land, with the Lyrebirds permeating your Dreaming. Bring your gifts, explore your creations or just come… breathe, dance.

PLEASE PREPARE YOURSELF // 100% SELF SUFFICIENCY IS REQUIRED

There will be no access to the main house on this weekend. You must come 100% self sufficient. We will have outdoor areas set up for you to cook if need be on the BBQ, to wash your dishes with boiling water, a tea station and a chai station


CAMPING
There are limited spots for Van/Vehicle camping, plenty of land though much of it is on a lean! So get in early if you can on Friday. Plenty of tent camping and still recommended to get here early for set up. There will be mossies n midgies around so bring repellent if they bug you!


CAR ACCESS
We've had some flood damage to the driveway so low cars & 2wd may need to park up top depending on weather conditions.


STORM EVENTS
From past experience, this is a fair weather festival. If storms are forecast & likely we will regrettably cancel & refund your ticket.


PARKING
Car pooling is strongly encouraged, so please throw your offerings or needs into the thread on the 'Dreamweavers Rising Tribe' private group if you can help or want to car pool. You can drive down to the house and drop off gear, most will be able to park on the land. If necessary, we will park you 2min up to the top car park once you have dropped off your camping gear.

Directions are on your ticket, and we will send an email in the week leading up with reminders and directions.

COMMUNITY FOOD SHARE — SATURDAY EVENING DINNER

This Dreamweavers we are changing it up slightly...

Saturday eve we are going to do a community camp up food share... Creations of love from your own hands & hearts.

BYO Plates, Cups, Cutlery. All other food is BYO at your camp site... not in the kitchen, so you'll need to bring your own cooking gear. All cooking must be in fire safe areas, or on cleared ground.

Bring EVERYTHING you need, the house won't be available for utensils, cups etc or washing. Everything you need will be set up outside.

It gets chaotic really quickly with so many people using the shared space so please help us by helping to keep the house and grounds clean & bring what you need for the whole weekend, Rain, hail or Shine.

Muchos Gracias!

SEATS, BLANKETS, YOGA MATS
We will have many cosy couches and rugs. You're encouraged to bring a camp chair, blankets and a yoga mat if you'd like to participate in the Meditations, Yoga and Workshops.

WATER
Unfiltered rain water is plentiful and we will endeavour to have filtered available also. Good idea to bring a water filter jug if you're worried or bring a 20L.

RUBBISH
ALL rubbish must be taken with you as we are off grid, we have limited rubbish facilities.


Many thanks!
Love from Elisha, Luca, Adrian, Nicola, Miki, Krista & the Dreamweavers Crew!!

WANT TO KNOW HOW IT FEELS TO BE HERE?


"I experienced more connections in 24hrs than in 7 days at Burning Man. Every conversation I had was an unexpected inspiring story that engaged my curiosity. I left feeling recharged which is highly unusual!"
— Carl Billy | Artist

"Hello to the beautiful organisers of Dreamweavers Rising. My partner Aaron and my best mate Karlie attended this weekend. We were blown away by the event. What a beautiful space you have created. We all left on Sunday afternoon with a great feeling of community and connection. You should be all proud of yourselves for creating this space for people - it is so needed. See you next time."
— Melanie Nicholson, Newcastle
