Our fourth annual gathering in celebration of womanhood
A living legacy & sanctuary for ceremony, community & connection
The Sacred Village is a ceremonial gathering devoted to the continuum of womanhood. Maidens, mothers, crones & elders of all walks & expressions sync into a shared heartbeat, remember what we are made of, and actively create a more harmonious world—the village way.
Welcome, Women of The Village
The Sacred Village is a ceremonial gathering devoted to the continuum of womanhood. Maidens, mothers, crones & elders of all walks & expressions sync into a shared heartbeat, remember what we are made of, and actively create a more harmonious world—the village way.
For three days and three nights, we enter dimensions of heavenly love, creative liberation and honest relating. We dance, sing, weep, pray, and celebrate the fullness of being woman… and together, we say yes to the sacred responsibility of shepherding a more integrated way of being for future generations who are looking to us for embodied feminine leadership.
Rooted in reciprocity, land guardianship and community care, this gathering weaves ceremony, musical performances, ancestral education, embodied workshops, personal healing, nourishing food, and so much MAGIC that words simply cannot convey. Every element is crafted as an invitation to reconnect with self, sisterhood, and Spirit.
Join us for fourth our annual Sacred Village Women’s Festival— a grounded place to pray, play and experience yourself as an integral thread in a web of wise, wild women.

Join Us in Making This Gathering More Accessible, Inclusive, & Powerful.
Not every woman who feels the call to The Sacred Village Festival has the financial means to attend— but together we can change that.
By Sponsoring A Sister, you are offering another woman the opportunity to step into the village, receive the medicine of sisterhood, and weave her presence in this sacred prayer.
Every contribution, big or small, helps cover ticket costs for women who may not otherwise be able to attend.
Equity, Inclusion & Community Care
Over the past year, many women in our community—especially women of colour and women from marginalized backgrounds—shared thoughtful, honest feedback about how our festival can become more equitable, diverse, and accessible. We are deeply grateful for this. Your voices matter, and they continue to shape how this gathering evolves.
We want to be clear: we are committed to creating a space where women of all directions feel welcome, seen, and supported—especially those who have historically faced barriers to wellness spaces, land-based gatherings, and spiritual communities. This commitment asks us to continuously examine our own blind spots, privilege, and biases. We are here for that work. We take it seriously, and we know it is ongoing.
In 2026, we are offering 8 full scholarship tickets for women experiencing financial need, with priority given to BIWOC and mothers. These scholarships reflect our belief that economic barriers should not prevent women from participating in meaningful community, ceremony, and connection. Applications for scholarship positions open in April.
We feel this is one small, concrete way we can reduce barriers, honour the feedback we’ve been given, and move toward a more inclusive and diverse festival. We are always learning, adapting, and listening.
If you have further suggestions or needs around representation, equity, and inclusion, we welcome you to reach out. Your input continues to guide this community mission.
The Sacred Village Anthem
This song was birthed from the soul of the village— channeled by Ashley Gilmore as a tribute to the women, the land, and the living prayer of this gathering.
“May our hearts echo with the strength of our ancestors, reminding us that we are seen, celebrated and cherished. May we invoke the magic that dwells within us, illuminating our paths and igniting our spirits”
~ Ashley Gilmore
