We welcome you and your family to Soulshine Festival 2023.
Empowerment of children, youth, and families is at the heart of the festival. This year, our Family Area is comprised of a Kids Activity Zone, a Family Camp and the Family Village.
The expansive Kids Activity Zone offers a magical forest playground, music, art, dancing, drumming and other exciting spaces for children to explore.
Family Camp is a designated area for families to pitch their tents in proximity to each other.
The Family Village is new this year and located in the centre of Family Camp. The Family Village will enable a communication and support system by establishing a coordination hub where families can connect and make arrangements to care for each other’s children.
Join us on Saturday, Sept 2nd at 9am in the Family Village for a Family Circle Workshop where we will introduce you to all the offerings serving families at Soulshine.
Note: Parents or guardians are responsible for their children at all times throughout the festival.
