Over dit evenement

Ecstatic Dance • Workshops • Live Music • Ceremonies • Drum Circle • Wellness area

Dear everyone, we invite you to join us again this summer at Castle The Berckt for the Dutch Ecstatic Dance Festival – Summer Edition 2026.

A festival where body, heart and presence can move freely. Here you are invited to land in your own expression. Through dance, workshops, stillness, connection or exploration.

We look forward to welcoming you in a space where you can arrive as you are, and where the dance can carry you deeper into what wants to live through you!♥️ scroll further for our line up and workshop program!

VIBRATE • RESONATE • CELEBRATE
△ Your unique journey in an Unified Field △
We are all holding Space together.

The Rhythm of the Week
Ecstatic Dance is our heartbeat, with two dances every day. But the journey is yours to shape. Expect a flowing program of transformative workshops, live concerts, sound journeys, and ceremonies. We’ve created an line-up of both Dutch and international artists and facilitators who intuitively read and hold the field. It’s an invitation to completely lose yourself in movement, only to return and land in a deep, soulful stillness.

Open Stage
During our Open Stage, boundaries dissolve and we celebrate the tribe’s creativity. Do you have a hidden talent, an instrument traveling with you, or a spoken word piece that needs to be shared? Step into the spotlight and let the community carry you. Raw, real, and always unforgettable.

Slow down · Re-charge · Integrate
In between activities, there is plenty of space to land and integrate your experiences. Warm up in the saunas and hot tubs, or cool down in an ice bath. Find a quiet spot in the grass or walk to the Maas river for a refreshing swim. Our cozy lounge is always open for ceremonial cacao, meaningful conversations, a cuddle puddle, or simply a moment of pure rest…

Fuel for the Soul
We offer a full experience: all meals (organic and vegetarian 🌱) are included in your ticket. When it comes to accommodation, choose the vibe that suits you: camp on the grass, bring your own tiny home on wheels, or book a comfortable room inside the castle.
