A full three days and two nights to immerse yourself in mother nature 🌿
This year we are focusing on comfort – we’re clearing out a section of the forest to allow shaded camping for everyone. We are opening up some space to allow you to camp next to your vehicle and we’re moving the dancefloor so we can blast right through the night without sound issues.

When the music starts flowing through your body & the beat of the drums shakes your chest, feeling like a heartbeat… When the bass crawls up your spine, until it fizzles your brain & all you can do is dance… or spin… in a circle – you understand how the music makes you feel & it is exactly right…
Beings from all walks of life, move as ONE entity & together are able to expand our consciousness, express our innermost emotions, uplift & nourish, not only ourselves, but also our brothers & sisters in life.
LOCATION – CIRCLE OF DREAMS – Riviersonderend / Cape Town
Shaded Camping by your car – Hot Showers, Flush-Toilets, Mountain Spring Drinking Water, Communal Braai Areas in all Camping Zones, around the clock security, Medics, Art Performances, Food Vendors, Workshops, Trade Stalls, Beautiful Swimming River & so much more.

Event Details
It’s that time of year again. It is time to celebrate the Love & Light and the beauty of Cape Town with an event that aims to bring people together in a unified space of amazing music and happy energy.
Coincidentally, although we know there is no such thing, our 8th year date falls upon a Full Moon, known as the Strawberry Moon, a time that signified the harvest of wild berries in the summertime.
Full moon is a time of creative outflow, a time to harvest and enjoy that which was started over the New Moon. This particular Midsummer’s Full Moon can be a time to manifest and celebrate everything created and explored through 2018.
We want you to celebrate with us, under the beautiful Sun, followed by the Full Moon, at our full day event on 22 December 2018. Expect more of what you have come to love about Love & Light, with some extra touches, to make it the best of its kind to date.
