Restival, a visionary fusion of a retreat and festival, is calling all adventurous spirits and anyone feeling “stuck” who wants a change in life to visit the Sahara Desert in Morocco this month for a unique new experience.
Running Nov. 14–20, Restival offers participants the chance to discover their inner spark while pulling the plug on technology and enjoying carefully curated experiences in the Sahara. One of the most natural, remote places on earth, the desert location provides an opportunity for people to reconnect themselves without the distracting hustle and bustle of the outside world.
“I had the desire to create an experience where people can open up, share and disconnect from the technological and societal pressures of our globalized culture,” said Caroline Jones, founder, Restival. “Restival was created from repeated requests from friends, family and colleagues to manifest an anti-festival with an off switch. The new malaise that cuts across generations is one of managing a 24/7 connection and how this effects everything from our sleep, social interaction and creativity.”
Inspirational contributors will lead participants in art, writing and music workshops as well as dance, yoga and meditation activities. Participants will have the chance to meet and engage with nomadic tribes as well as enjoy astronomy activities, a movie night, traditional Touareg music and storytelling around the campfire.
Further Restivals are planned in the United Kingdom for May 2016, the United States in July 2016 and Morocco in November 2016.
