Body & Soul
The Body & Soul Area
The creative team at Body&Soul bring back their unique, magical touch to Electric Picnic this year with fresh strings of inspiration added to their bow.
Often described as the colourful “heartbeat” of Electric Picnic, The Body&Soul Village is dotted with curious, colourful corners bolstered by rare, outlandish and cutting-edge art and performances by a long list of Body&Soulesque artists and contributors. Look out for the likes of The Jimmy Rig Slip Jig, Those Fire Guys and Mrs. Mountiebonk and her Bandwagon of Charlatans to name but a few.
The Zen Gardens and Earth Spirit are staple realms at Body&Soul: Look out for Boundless Bathing Hot Tubs, Herbis, Hortisculpture, Shamanic Healing, Indian Head Massage, Workshops, Warm Chai and Laughter Yoga across the cocooned, ethereal expanse of The Village landscape.
Added to the permanent fixture - Body&Soul Main Stage, The Peace Pagoda and Burning Man artist Shrine’s Love Letter Stage, is Christy Collards new “Earth Ship” Stage brought to you by ERP. Inspired by the New Mexico self-sustainable desert dwellings of the same name, the stage is built from environmentally friendly, found and recycled materials and clad in electrical waste.
A host of Body&Soul Nooks and Crannies are stitched in to the Body&Soul Village as small programmed venues not to miss - serving up culinary delights along with surprise acts and performances. Among these include: Natasha’s Living Food Emporium, The Sushi Yurt, Tiny Tea Tent, Coyote Moon and the effervescent Hurly Burly Crew.
Looking forward to seeing you there!
