EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO ManiFEST

ManiFEST is a 100% drug & alcohol free event. Together we will be accessing the highest versions of ourselves through many healing activities and experiences. We invite you to come with an open mind and leave with a full heart by participating to whatever level is in your joy for the weekend. No pressure, only love.

 

We are blessed to be sharing this unified Dreaming on beautiful, pristine private land in Harvey Shire. As we gather our hearts together we intend to unify our collective heartbeat with the heartbeat of our mother earth. We will leave this land physically pristine and energetically charged.

​

Caring for Yourself and the Land

• Bring enough drinking water (approximately 10-15L/ person) and carry a re-usable water bottle with you throughout the festival.

• Feel free to bring your own food to prepare or enjoy the amazing Vege Mama food van onsite that will include vegetarian food, coffee, chai & juices for purchase. We urge you to bring a re-usable cup, plate or bowl and cutlery to further minimise waste. Bring enough cash for this as there will be no ATM’s onsite.

• Please note there is NO POWER or cooking facilities onsite and there is a Total Fire Ban at this time of year. Prepare and bring appropriate food for these conditions.

• There are toilets provided but no showers, however a swim in the spring fed dam will leave you feeling fresher than any shower! Feel free to bring a solar shower or simply get back to nature for the weekend.

• Bring your own Garbage bags to your campsite and take home absolutely everything you brought with you. Minimise plastics where you can and recycle as much as possible. Let us honour this land we are here to bless.

• Make sure you have clothing for both hot, cold and wet weather throughout the festival as temperatures drop significantly in the evening.

 

 

Safety Considerations

• We are blessed to have access to a 3 spring fed swimming hole. Please note that it is unfenced so please ASSUME 100% RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR CHILDREN at all times, especially when near the water.

• Be prepared for the elements. It can be hot during the day and cold at night. Keep an eye on the weather forecast and bring clothing, rain protection and extra warmth to reflect this. There is very limited shade in the camping or festival area. BYO shade and sun protection. Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Bring mosquito repellent. Be mindful that it is snake season so please take extra precaution in the surrounding bush lands.

• There is a TOTAL FIRE BAN at this time of year. Absolutely no Fires will be permitted.

• We strongly suggest you bring your own First Aid Kit however there will be paramedics on site.

• NO DOGS or pets are permitted at any part of ManiFEST.

• Bring a Torch for each person as the festival site can become very dark at night. Head torches are a great choice for travelling between the campsite and festival grounds.

• There is wheel chair access however the site is composed of natural terrain and thus there may not be full access to all areas.
