Down in the southern hemisphere Origin Festival holds it down for the conscious crew, delivering an enriching, enlightening three-day experience every January.

Taking place in the middle of South Africa's summer, Origin's communal atmosphere is as warm and welcoming as the weather. Including yoga and meditation classes, which run alongside the uplifting, entrancing music there's a strong wellness ethos and an unflinching dedication to the environment. Besides all of that, of course there is much fun to be had with two music stages, an art tent and a chill out zone. It's intimate, friendly, uninhibited and full of gorgeous people of all races, genders and ages.
