About : Body&Soul Festival 2012

Body&Soul has been a sell out event since it first burst onto the festival landscape in 2010. Now in it’s third year and with a few awards under it’s belt, it has truly become a force of it’s own; It’s effervescent personality and sophisticated sense of mischief is woven into every fibre of this diverse and magical gathering and infuses all who participate - and all do in their way.

Building on all we have learnt, loved and loathed (luckily not too much loathing) in the last few years, 2012 is looking set to take things to another level and we’re very much hoping you’ll be with us for the adventure. The expansive walled gardens and woodlands of Balinlough Castle are again to be transformed and the forces of creation, passion, naughtiness and intrigue will be whisked up with the spirit of a damn good party to once again create groovalicious magic for your body & soul!

Rising to the challenges and the momentum of previous successes has drawn a lot of talent to the Body&Soul team and a spectactular wonderland is in the pipeline for 2012: beautiful, quirky, alluring and off the wall spaces to be enjoyed, explored and reveled in; surrounded by sights and sounds to delight your senses and engage your being ...Body&Soul is the time and the place to leave it all behind for a while, surrender to whimsy and the possibility that your wildest dreams can and sometimes do come true.

Whether you want to stomp it out on a bass-filled dancefloor or steam and bubble gently in the woodland hot-tubs, get wrapped in the magic of a fireside acoustic sessions or lose your stresses with a lakeside massage ... there is something for you at Body&Soul. It is not mono-thematic, it is about diversity and a the celebration of it, both around us and within us. it’s about celebrating all the little individual bits that make up the whole. It is about creating an environment that encourages the participation of everyone, that instills that feeling of freedom to involve yourself in whichever way inspires you.

Strap on your dancing boots, fluff up your feathers, choose your outfit with abandon and a twinkle and hold on to your hats ... 2012 is set to be epic!
