This year, the European Yoga Festival is pleased to introduce the first-ever Symposium on Yoga Research and Applications.
Bringing together researchers and experienced practitioners, the symposium will explore both the growing body of scientific research on yoga and meditation and the ways these practices are being applied in therapeutic settings.
The one-day program will feature presentations, breakout sessions, and opportunities for discussion and connection.
The symposium is included at no additional cost for all European Yoga Festival participants.
For those who wish to attend only the symposium, a special day pass is available. We also offer weekend pass options, making it easier for participants travelling from further afield to attend the symposium and enjoy part of the festival experience.
You can choose to camp with your own tent or to book a tent or a bed in a dorm.
