The Entheos Conference and Festival takes place in a beautiful outdoor location near Squamish, B.C. from June 19-21st, 2009.

Entheos is a next-generation outdoor festival created by a loving crew of enthusiastic volunteers that celebrates our collective creativity, inter connectivity, and innate divinity at the time of the Summer Solstice.

A wide variety of electronic music ranging from trance to dubstep and from mellow grooves to ambient soundscapes is presented on two stages.

Entheos also features a conference, workshops, a kids zone, a Red Tent for women, a tea lounge, a temple and a tribal marketplace. A green team of environmental engineers works to ensure that we gather with minimal impact, fostering environmental responsibility and ongoing sustainability.

The mission of the Entheos Conference and Festival is to inspire self-expression, energetic elevation, meaningful fun, new friendships, and optimism for the future.

Entheos 09 Conference

Entheos provides Workshops and a Conference for attendees to develop new skills and have time to commune with their brothers and sisters in a positive environment. This year we have some very special knowledge to impart, and as we gather in one of British Columbias most sacred valleys, we look forward to sharing them with you. Our keynote speaker this year is Jeet-kei Leung, who will be leading a 2 hour seminar entitled: The New Festival & Transformational Culture:

The Festival has been a consistent and vital part of human culture since our beginnings. They have been a call to step outside of everyday life, to connect with the mythic and celebrate communally the affirmation of life. Now, after centuries of puritanism and repression, the ecstatic tradition has re-emerged into culture at a pivotal time of global challenges and enormous shifts. A new festival culture has bloomed throughout the west coast and dotting the world.

The new festivals have become confluence points for exchange and inspiration, community-building and collaboration, a place where the cutting-edge memes and thought of our time find a meeting ground to inform and inspire each other. These parties have become a practice space for the intentionally co-created world--the TAZ or temporary autonomous zone, a model of the future coming into being.

The New Festival & Transformational Culture articulates exactly how this culture embodies the way towards an evolved, liberated and promising future. Jeet-kei Leung aka Mazeguider shares insights from involvement with the culture since its origins and opens the doorways to understanding this vital, new, and yet ancient, phenomena blossoming once again in our midst.
