New Year's Celebration
December 30, 2026 - January 2, 2027 - Vale do Rossim, Portugal

Non-alcolic and substance free gathering
LGBTQIA+ Welcoming
A Gathering for the whole family

Easily, we move from mission to mission, from thought to thought, always doing something to reach somewhere.

This means not truly living and enjoying the present moment.

When we are out of the present moment, life goes by fast, and we miss the beautiful moments that can only happen when we are fully present.

These beautiful moments of love and connection are what make our lives rich and meaningful.

During this New Year’s Gathering, we will create many moments of presence, love and connection - supporting each other to shape the reality we are longing for.

Our journey unfolds through four sacred portals:

December 30 - Connect
Arrival, gathering the tribe, opening circle

December 31 - Release
Forgiveness, letting go, rebirth ceremony

January 1 - Renew
Shine your light, birth 2027 with intention

January 2 - Rise
Heart-opening, integration, rising together

Each gathering has left hearts open, tears released, laughter echoing through the forest

- and a deep remembrance that we rise, always, together.

Join us in the mountains.

Directions

By plane
For the nearest airport, you have two main options:
Porto Airport (OPO) – about 2.5 to 3 hours away
Lisbon Airport (LIS) – around 3.5 hours away

By car
To get to Vale do Rossim Eco Resort by car, you should ideally come from the direction of Seia https://maps.app.goo.gl/SBsvaLZfcagcnfpVA instead of Manteigas

Without a car
To get to Vale do Rossim Eco Resort without a car, here are a few options:

Public Transport & Taxi:
The closest town with bus connections is Gouveia or Seia.
You can take a bus from major cities like Lisbon or Porto to one of these towns.
From there, you’ll need to take a taxi or rideshare to reach the eco resort,
as public transport doesn’t go directly to the location

Ride-Sharing & Festival Community:
Many festival attendees coordinate rides.
Eventually we will create a WhatsApp group with all the attendees for this.
