Saturday, 20th June 2026 | 17:00 – 22:00 | Dilston Physical Gardens

​The Magical Midsummer Garden is a transformative gathering for women, centred around the themes of growth, light, and sisterhood. Through a blend of somatic movement, ancient ceremonies, and sensory experiences, we will honour the midsummer solstice, ground ourselves in nature, and celebrate our collective feminine energy.

​Join us at the enchanting Dilston Physic Garden for an evening of deep connection, vibrant energy, and soulful stillness. As the sun reaches its highest point in the sky, we gather to honour the longest day of the year and the peak of the solar cycle.

​This immersive five-hour journey is designed to align your internal rhythms with the flourishing beauty of nature, moving from the active energy of the sun into the restorative embrace of the earth.
