When we talk about mind–body wellbeing, we often imagine yoga mats, silent retreats, and solo meditations. But what if feeling well could be louder, looser, and shared with thousands of others under open skies?

These festivals go beyond the traditional wellness format—they bring together movement, music, community, and nature in ways that are joyful, embodied, and deeply connecting.

Here are five to discover:

1. Love Trails Festival

10 — 13 July, 2025 | Gower Peninsula, Wales

A festival where trail running, adventure, and music are brought together, Love Trails is for those who see movement as a form of freedom. Morning runs, cold dips, wild swims, yoga sessions, and night-time dancing—it’s about moving through the weekend with curiosity and community. If you’ve ever wanted to combine endorphins with exploration, this one’s for you.

The If Lost Take:

We love it because it proves that fitness can be soulful and adventure can be mindful.

2. Boardmasters

Wednesday 6 – Sunday 10 August, 2025 | Newquay, Cornwall

Surf. Skate. Sounds. Set against the cliffs and beaches of Cornwall, Boardmasters blends a coastal lifestyle with world-class music and wellness. Think: morning beach yoga, breathwork, cold water therapy, surf sessions, and then dancing under the stars to big-name DJs. It's a sun-kissed reset that brings together body and rhythm, rest and exhilaration.

The If Lost Take:

This is wellbeing for the wave-chasers, sea-dippers, and free spirits who feel better with sand between their toes.

3. Wellnergy Festival

13th & 14th June, 2025 | Wimbledon Park, London

Wellnergy blends fitness, mindfulness, music, food, and mental health into a one-day experience that’s accessible, thoughtful, and full of positive energy. With talks from psychologists, live workouts, laughter yoga, and nourishing food stalls, it’s designed for those looking to dip into lots of feel-good tools without the overwhelm.

The If Lost Take:

We love how welcoming and inclusive this festival is—a taster menu of wellbeing, served with heart and good vibes.

4. Wilderness Festival

31 July — 3 August, 2025 | Cornbury Park, Oxfordshire

Wilderness mixes music, wild swimming, feasting, wellbeing workshops, and open-air theatre into one of the UK’s most beloved boutique festivals. The Sanctuary area offers everything from forest bathing to dynamic yoga and fire rituals. This is where mind-body meets wild creativity, and you’ll leave sweaty, inspired, and maybe a little changed.

The If Lost Take:

It’s a beautifully curated pause from real life—a reminder of what’s possible when we come back to our bodies and the land.

5. Verve Festival

Saturday 13 & Sunday 14 September, 2025 | Wiltshire, UK

Tucked into the Wiltshire countryside, Verve is a small, beautiful wellbeing festival designed to restore and uplift. Think open-air yoga, creative workshops, soulful conversations, forest walks, live music and seasonal food, all with a focus on mindful, meaningful living. Intimate, accessible, and community-led, it’s one of the UK’s best-kept secrets for a conscious weekend in nature.

The If Lost Take:

We love Verve for its intentional pace and gentle spirit—a space where wellbeing feels joyful, local, and connecting..

These festivals invite you to move differently, connect deeply, and come back to yourself—through rhythm, nature and shared joy. Whether you're craving a hit of endorphins, a soulful workshop, or a dancefloor under the stars, there's a mind–body gathering waiting to meet you this summer.
