Connect & celebrate love in high-vibe spaces

Our Mission

Lovefest creates and holds space for people on their inner journey to deepen connection and love for self, community and planet.

We come together to connect, transform, and celebrate life, whilst holding the same vision and intention to spread Love into the world. This then ripples out into the society we live in, positively impacting the community at large and eventually the country and planet.

Lovefest Foundation

Lovefest is a Not-for-Profit Private Foundation, commonly known as an unincorporated association or Non-Government Organisation (NGO) established to encourage, foster and support humankind through the expansion of conscious awareness and mindfulness.

Whilst each Lovefest community event has its own specific purpose, all contribute to the Foundations purpose, through co-creations centred in love and true learning.

Lovefest events are co-created by the community for the community at a grass roots level.

Lovefest Values and Principles

Our values

LOVE FOR SELF

The awareness that we are all deserving of Love. Embracing and accepting the most authentic version of who we really are, and learning how to give and receive Love in flow with gratitude.

LOVE FOR COMMUNITY

Being able to create space for community and connect with others in a state of unity, clarity, care, curiosity, creativity, and compassionate communication.

LOVE FOR PLANET

Respecting all living beings and Planet Earth. Understanding that everything is connected, and actively choosing to be of service by influencing positive change for the all Humans, Animals and Nature.



Our Principles

The purpose of the following principles is so we all have the ability to make effective choices for the community. This happens when we have a shared understanding of the principles; and we all embody the principles based on our common values.

1. Inner Journey. We explore our inner journey by being committed to our own personal development. We do this by adopting a growth mindset through practicing self-inquiry, developing self-awareness and continually evolving physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

We connect with our breath, we allow ourselves to feel our emotions, be mindful of our thoughts, and aware of our  environment through all of our senses. 

2. Compassionate Communication begins with being fully present and listening with an open heart and open mind. We take responsibility for our own feelings and actions.  We reflect first and then express ourselves authentically and with compassion.

Non-Violent Communication practices are encouraged to communicate needs and emotions in a way that can bring about a deeper more loving connection.

3. Being of Service to self, humanity, and nature. Through contribution and growth we give to others and nature beyond ourselves. 

4. Humility: Knowing that each person is just as important as another. We honour diversity and that everyone is unique and gifted in their own way. “I am because we are” We practice that by honouring our highest values, fulfilling our purpose and therefore experiencing joy. 

5. Harmony. We actively seek opportunities to be in harmony with self, others, and nature. We make choices to be free from substances that impair our cognition so we may be completely present with ourselves and others.

6. Building Community.Through healthy relationships and welcoming diversity we come together to create, to learn, to share, to play in a way that contributes to a healthy community. 

We build community through working on projects together centred in Love. Such as land projects, community projects, events, gatherings, festivals, healing retreats and educational workshops. 

7. Connection to Land. We are humbled by the land that we stand on. Showing respect to the earth and being grateful to nature. We reconnect through learning and striving to utilise indigenous wisdom in our principles.

8. Celebration. We recognise our effective choices that have enabled us to embody life. Breathing itself is a miracle.

We raise the level of vibration of all aspects of our lives and our surroundings by celebrating just being alive.
