Festival of Awakening 2026 | August 14-16 Krishna Das Returns to Woodstock

Mark your calendars for August 14–16 and join us in the heart of Woodstock for the Woodstock Festival of Awakening, a three-day immersive gathering of sacred music, healing arts, movement, ceremony, visionary creativity, and conscious community.

We are especially honored to welcome back the legendary Krishna Das, whose return to Woodstock is already generating excitement across the spiritual and music communities. Known worldwide for his powerful kirtan gatherings and deeply moving presence, Krishna Das brings a rare spirit of devotion, joy, and collective healing that has inspired generations. His appearance at this year’s festival will be one of the weekend’s most anticipated experiences.

Set across the magical grounds of Bearsville Park and throughout Woodstock, the festival brings together beloved teachers, musicians, healers, artists, and seekers for a weekend devoted to connection, inspiration, and awakening. Alongside Krishna Das, featured guests include Nina Rao, Tribe of Love, Mama India, awakening talks, sacred chant and kirtan, ecstatic dance, yoga, healing markets, art installations, children’s programming, community rituals, and more.

From sunrise chanting and woodland walks to evening ceremonies and ecstatic dance gatherings, each day unfolds as an invitation to reconnect, with spirit, nature, creativity, and one another.

Many events are free or donation-based, with full festival and day passes now available.
