A Typical Day at an All World Acres Festival
In the morning stroll down to the cafe for coffee and/or breakfast. Outside in the courtyard you'll find many people socializing and planning for the day's activities. Wander into the garden circle where you can enjoy a quiet moment for meditation or exercise. The fire circle is another favorite spot in the morning and don't forget a visit to the horses. Next it's time to check out the workshop schedule. They all sound fun and educational so catch a couple before lunch. After lunch there's always more workshops or a good time to relax. The afternoon is also a great time for shopping and you'll find a bustling merchants' row with a large diverse selection of merchandise. In the evening you might enjoy a concert or show in the courtyard or join an impromptu jam session/sing-a-long. The night is also time for drum circle and a visit to AWA is incomplete without experiencing the magick around the main fire. Later in the evening stop by the cafe for coffee or dessert.

First Time Festival Attendees
At All World Acres we have always been proud that many people come here for their first visit to a festival or community gathering. We strive to make everyone feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. Want to make new friends? You'll find some of the nicest people you're ever going to meet. Want to remain solitary and just observe? There's plenty of room for privacy and everyone's wishes are respected.

The Rising Sun Cafe
The cafe will be open every day of the event from 9am until 11pm. Home cooked meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner are available each day. Bottled water, soft drinks, and snacks are also available at reasonable prices.

General Info

AWA features a covered stage, 3 different ritual/fire circle areas, clothing optional areas, and a bath house with hot showers and flush toilets. AWA is a not for profit sanctuary and campground that is supported by the community it serves. All of the work done to prepare and facilitate this event is done by volunteers.
