Sævild festival is an intimate co-creation festival which started amongst friends in 2022.
Since then, the group of friends has grown, and although most people at the festival still come from the Bergen community, we have had people coming from all over the country and world to join our cozy festival.
This will be our fift year, and after a lot of feedback from people wanting the magic to last longer, we have decided to prolong the festival, so that we have six days to connect and share our love, knowledge, playfulness, eat together, create meaningful connections and grow in community.
Non-profit
We are non-profit festival, and all funds go back into the festival in one way or another. Whether it is through creating new or improved structures for the festival, funding cheaper tickets for some who struggle financially, making sure we have more locally sourced, ethical food etc.
We want to make the world a slightly better place with our festival
Held heartspace
We aim to create an intentional and supported space for connecting with others and yourself.
Our opening and closing ceremonies support arrival, grounding, and a conscious closing of the journey, and all participants stay for the full experience.
Our festival is substance-free: no drugs, no alcohol, and no nicotine use except in the designated smoking area.
Co-creation
We provide the foundation, but the festival comes alive through our shared energy, creativity, and playfulness.
Bring what you want to share workshops, music, open-mic offerings each year the magic
is new.
We can’t wait to see what unfolds.
Inclusivity
We are a conscious and evolving community.
A strong focus on consent, communication and personal boundaries is at the core of everything we do.
We co-create an environment where trust can grow, connections can deepen, and everyone has space to be themselves.
Location
Our festival takes place on a beautiful farm in Samnanger, just outside Bergen.
Surrounded by mountains, a serene lake, a floating sauna, and a nearby wilderness spa, it’s a place best experienced in person.
It’s the kind of setting that makes you want to put your phone away and be fully present.
