the spring equinox festival is a full-day journey through music, movement, and ritual at a forest village 30 minutes from lisbon. culture, embodiment, and contemporary ritual woven into one day. live musicians, ceremony at the exact moment of equinox, dance from golden hour through midnight, and a constellation of spaces to wander between the trees.
