Celebrate the spirit of yoga and community—from the grassroots of the 60s counter-culture, to the modern yoga and transformational arts gatherings at the Lovelight Yoga and Arts Festival. The second annual festival will be held August 18 to 20, in Darlington, Maryland, just a few hours from BuxMont.

The festival draws some of the most beloved national teachers, kirtan, music and yoga headliners, including Krishna Das, Dharma Mittra, Trevor Hall, Dana Trixie Flynn, Tina Malia and MC Yogi, as well as many other well-known, regional teachers. Throughout the festival, attendees will have the opportunity to enjoy musical performances, yoga classes, flow arts, themed campsites, drum circles, vegan and vegetarian food vendors, art installations, live painting, interactive art projects, workshops, fire dancing, wholesome libations and high vibrational food.

This is a family-friendly festival with children more than welcome at the G-rated event. Kidding Around Yoga and Haris Lender will be presenting a children’s village featuring yoga, meditation, kirtan, music, arts and crafts, hooping, magic shows and more.

More than an ordinary festival, Lovelight seeks to engage attendees in a wholly interactive environment, with the goal to enlighten and empower as well as encourage expression and participation. The team responsible for the festival notes that “The line between performer and participant is blurred… with everyone having a part in a cosmic passion play that creates inspiration, knowledge and fellowship. We share the light inside of us and know that we are warmed by the light in others.”

Early-bird tickets are available online now and include camping. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit LovelightFestival.com.
