Our villages are Ecotopia (Recommended for families with kids), this is also our quietest village. Mythica, a whimsical and creative bunch who tend to make art projects and do in village art installations. Q Camp Village, is our newest addition to the festival and is a dedicated safe space for our LGBTQ+ friends, look for crafting and a cabaret stage in this village! Technosis Village is a village that tends to be where the house and techno fans end up, this village is socially and politically minded, but they definitely know how to have a good time!
