Come play, connect and co-create with us during To Gather Festival: a community festival where we gather and camp with friends and friends-of-friends for five days to celebrate being human! Play with who you are or think you are and embrace imperfection and simplicity. Connect without judgment with all sides of yourself, others and the natural world around you. And co-create workshops, activities, meals, music, decoration, campfire or anything else that you would like to bring to the community. Whoever you are or whatever your interests are: you are welcome at To Gather!

CO-CREATING AND PARTICIPATING
To Gather is a co-creative festival, meaning we create the party together. This is built upon two foundational structures: co-creation and participation.

One of the things we co-create is the program, using a framework based on open space technology 🎭. A few activities and workshops are planned in advance, but most of the program will be filled with your own acts, workshops, lectures, games, sports —whatever you can imagine! To Gather is a space for creativity, experimentation, and collaboration: we encourage participants to step out their comfort zone and share their passion - even if you're not an "expert" yet.

In addition, everyone is asked to participate 🤲🏽. You can do this by for example taking a shift at the bar, assisting with meal preparation, or being the time keeper of the day. You're invited to add your interests and energy in a way that suits you best!

Whoever you are, whatever you can do, whatever brings you joy, you're welcome to share it with us. Together, we create a community where freedom, play, and connection take center stage.

DATES
19 - 20 - 21 - 22 - 23 June 2024
As we care about creating a community, we encourage everyone to be there from the start. So take those days off, block your calendar and join us from the beginning💃🏻! If you can not do that, you would be still welcome to join on Thursday or Friday. In the light of community building, we don't want new faces to still join on Saturday or Sunday. We hope you understand.

LOCATION
To Gather will take place at a beautiful piece of land in The Netherlands: camping Landgoed Ottermeer. We are super excited about this location and recommend you to take a look, imagine what To Gather could be like, and hopefully share our excitement!

CONTRIBUTION
The vision of To Gather is to be a place where the doors are open for all types of people, no matter background, culture, age, interests, lifestyle... ánd no matter how deep their pockets are. That is why we choose to use a sliding scale, trusting that you can decide what contribution best suits your financial situation.

All options include main meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner), excluding drinks and snacks

€200 (= €40 per day) | This is the minimum contribution we need to organize a successful 5-day community festival.

€250 (= €50 per day) | With this contribution you ensure that we are able to deliver more quality, choose quality products with more care and create a better festival experience.

€300 (= €60 per day) | Do you have some more financial space? Consider choosing this option. With this contribution you not only ensure more quality and extra facilities, as well as an investment in future community events of To Gather, but you also compensate for the people paying minimum contribution. This helps make To Gather accessible for everyone.
