Festival of the Awakening

Attention all seekers of Enlightenment! The second annual Woodstock Community Festival of Awakening (WOCA) is coming to town. If you’re in Woodstock from August 9th to 11th, make sure to stop by and experience this amazing communal gathering. It’s not just an event; it’s a celebration of our shared desire for deeper connections, peace, love, and community – the Woodstock way.

What began as a simple conversation among kindred spirits has blossomed into a transformative festival. Last September, nearly a thousand souls came together in Woodstock, drawn to numerous events celebrating a shared journey toward Awakening. This year, the Awakening will grace us again with even richer offerings, including a performance by the world-renowned Krishna Das.

Throughout the weekend, Saturday, August 10th, all around town, attendees can immerse themselves in live kirtan music, children’s activities, a healing garden market,  Kundalini yoga & gong meditation, awakening talks, live music crawl across town + more. Participating venues include The Nest, The Mothership Gallery, Bearsville Center, Mountainview Studio, Shivastan Poetry Ashram, Euphoria Yoga, Happy Life Productions, Christian Science Reading Room, Woodstock Outpost and Tinker Street Cinema. Some highlighted events include, but not limited to:

• Krishna Das performing at the Bearsville Center.

• Robert Thurman + Elliot Landy leading their own Awakening Talks at the Bearsville Center.
