The team behind The Big Retreat festival and The Little Retreat is led by passionate individuals with a deep-rooted history in wellness and community-building. The inspiration for The Big Retreat festival stemmed from the success of their first Little Retreat in 2014, which laid the foundation for their inaugural Big Retreat in 2018.
As the festival gained momentum and popularity, the focus shifted, temporarily placing the intimate Little Retreat on hold.
Now, with a renewed vision, the team is ready to relaunch The Little Retreat, the very essence that inspired Co founder Amber to initiate The Big Retreat - providing a special location for a large number of guests to experience the incredible health benefits of well-being activities and learning amidst the beauty of nature.
With a rich history in wellness retreats and community gatherings, the team is deeply committed to upholding high standards and delivering exceptional experiences at both The Big Retreat festival and The Little Retreat.
Drawing on their collective expertise and the success of past events, the team curates diverse programs, collaborates with expert guides, and prioritizes guest satisfaction to ensure that each retreat offers transformative and memorable experiences for all participants.
The distinction of The Big Retreat festival and The Little Retreat lies in their shared mission to offer guests unique opportunities for well-being, adventure, and community connection in serene natural settings.
Motivated by the profound impact of providing guests with the health benefits of well-being activities and learning in nature, the team is dedicated to creating enriching experiences that inspire personal growth, relaxation, and rejuvenation for all who attend.
