Envision, a festival where ocean meets jungle. Envision, a festival that connects travelers, yogis, and artists of all sorts into an eco-conscious community made up of love, art, and music for 4 straight days. Envision is a four-day festival in Uvita, Costa Rica. It is a festival dripping in love, unity, and positive vibes. Envision has many special aspects that make the festival stand out. Here are six unique things to note about Envision Music Festival.

 

1. Travel Excursions

To be exact, Envision offers 5 different tours before and after the festival as a way to connect fellow festival goers and show them the best of Costa Rica! The tours range from adventurous, thrill-seeking tours that take you to experience the best cities, music, and food the country has to offer. Another tour option encourages you to relax and unwind in the ultimate paradise that is Costa Rica after your 4 day epic journey in the jungle! The 3 other tours offered focus on herbal medicine, astrology, and green building! Click the link here to read about dates, costs and itineraries of the epic journeys they have planned for you!

 

2. Unique VIP Options

Often times, living the VIP life at festivals entails glamorous private camping options in an RV, but at Envision VIP means you get to choose from options of staying in a magical treehouse, to a jungle bungalow, to even your very own little bungalow inside of the Yoga Village! We’ll stay in one of each, please!

 

3. Shanti Town Yoga Camp

For all you Yogi loving doers out there, Envision is a festival that not only celebrates the yoga culture, but thrives on implementing it into the festival as much as possible. Shanti Town Yoga Camp is a mindful haven where you can stumble upon like minded yogis in their daily practice. There will be a revolving door of guest classes and speakers in Shanti Town throughout the weekend in the designated yoga space to inspire your personal practice!

 

4. The Lineup

Unlike most festivals, Envision does not focus mainly on bringing in the biggest, most popular acts from around the world. Instead they focus on creating a culturally rich experience with performers that preach the message of love and unity. They host artists that encompass a wide variety of genres, and will be sure to get you movin’ and groovin’! This year’s lineup features Xavier Rudd, Mike Love, Manic Focus, TROYBOI, & more!

 

5. Latin American Showcase

Envision highlights some of Latin America’s most authentic sounds, resulting in a cultural experience that introduces rhythms your ears have never heard! Vibrant performances from  Matanza (Chile), Chancha via Circuito (Argentina), La BOA (Bogotá Orchestra Afrobeat / Colombia), Patterns (CR) and local favorite Santos y Zurdo (CR) will awaken your musical tastes!

 

6. Thought Provoking Workshops

One of the things Envision prides itself on is the power of knowledge, and the power to share that knowledge. Every year Envision brings world class instruction in regards to yoga, spirituality and the environment! This year, they will be featuring yoga classes taught by Gina Caputo, Carson Clay Calhoun and Robin Martin, as well as learning experiences with astrologer Kaypacha, Dakota Access Pipeline protest leader Winona LaDuke, and the important work of Bioneers with co-founder Nina Simons.

 

Envision is sure to be an inspirational, mind-altering journey! Bring your bug spray, boogie feet, and best self and we’ll see you out in the jungle!
