Shambala Speaks Season 6, Episode 1 is out now! 🎤🫏

We’re kicking things off with a bang with part one of a Led By Donkeys double bill. They're a team of disruptors who are all about holding powerful people accountable. Recorded live at Shambala 2025, this talk was a stand out moment of the festival, and we thought it was only fair to give everyone the chance to hear it again.

Tune in, kettle on and soak it all in x

About that countdown… 👀🔥
Not an event this time but something cosy is landing: our MERCH!

We had planned to squeeze in one more event this November, but between the freezing temps, flood-level rain, and making sure our main man stays healthy, we’re taking a winter break. ❄️

The boss, James, has poured years of heart, graft, and investment into making Lost Horizon Nomadic Spa the safe, magical sauna garden you all love.
We’re proud of what we’ve built and we can’t wait to welcome you back!

If you want to support us through the winter months, snag some of our merch and rep the best festival sauna around. 🔥

Find our website in our bio and get ready for the merch launch Sunday 30th at 11:30am!

If you’ve been to ALSO before, you’ll know it’s like a ‘choose your own adventure’ through a programme of ideas, music, comedy, wellbeing and food, delivered in a way you won’t find at any other festival. . .

Over half of you who came this year have already booked for ‘26 - if that’s you, we can’t wait to have you back. And if you haven’t been before? Well, there’s a reason so many are returning . . .

A sunny throwback to our volunteer Rod at BST Hyde Park 🙌

Rod’s chosen charity is Trussell, where he also volunteers at the food banks away from festival season.

We are so lucky to meet dedicated volunteers like Rod who make the world a better place, all year round 🧡
When this happens, it's usually because the owner only shared it with a small group of people, changed who can see it or it's been deleted.
