What is Sound & Silence?
"While Sound & Silence is highly festive, it's not a festival, not really. It looks like a festival but it feels much more like a retreat. It's guided. It's orchestrated. And it's extraordinary. A week with us is like a 7 day song, placing and pairing melodious and well timed notes into a hypnotic symphony - one sound leading to the next, always honoring the silence in-between, while enjoying ecstatic crescendos and moments of soft lulls, all ending in that pure and blissful space BEYOND THE MUSIC.
Our intention is to create a captivating, abundant and delicately designed program with a high level of talent, yet all on one stage, in one space, taking us on one collective journey. As the saying goes: "We are better together." So there is no need to decide between various events and, therefore, there is no FOMO (fear of missing out). We also limit our ticket sales to only 333 guests, keeping it small, intimate and inclusive. In this way, we are more like a large retreat with an exquisite offering of music, dance and the meditative arts..."

Come come dear one, your soul family is waiting for you ...
WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT S&S...
Teresa F."The kind of meeting of a lifetime ... the magic happens in the meetings of sound and silence... a natural state of connection and happiness! I had the most beautiful experiences and feelings ... music, silence, the people, the sea... in a word... it was the heartbeat, deep gratitude for your seed and see you soon... again and again. "
|
MiTCH K."Pure Magic ... Sound & Silence is much more than a festival, it's like coming home, home to a place where my visions of how a new society could work had an example ... there is a space for the heart, a space for silence and expression, for love and creativity, for laughter and tears ... and space for the truth of all... "

Andrea P."The gathering in Corfu was without a doubt the best meeting I've been in. I'm very happy to know that you will continue to create the most magical meetings again."

"Between the sounds of music there are gaps of silence. Authentic music does not consist of sounds, but of gaps. The sounds come and go; those gaps remain and music can make you aware of those gaps more beautifully than anything else; that's why I have to say that music comes next to silence" |
~ S&S MEDITERRANEAN SUMMER ~
ANNOUNCING OUR NEW EUROPEAN HOME SOON!
We Are Just WARMING UP...Dear family, we are currently getting to know several beautiful locations in Portugal, which feels more and more like the place where we will enjoy many celebrations in near the future ... Similar to Costa Rica, we feel that Portugal has one of the strongest conscious community movements in the world. Without a doubt, it is a place that calls us to plant new seeds of love and and drop a point of light for our growing Sound & Silence community. Soon we will share the location and date of our next European gathering, planned for the summer of 2019 ...
