SHARE YOUR PASSIONS AT THE WILD ROSES FESTIVAL
We are calling in a diverse line up of healers, thought leaders, motivational speakers, creatives and performers to hold space as an honorary presenter, performer or instructor for the 2025 year. It is incredibly important that our line up is aligned with our values and vision, name their teachers, and have experience in presenting and spaceholding for large groups.
The Wild Roses Festival has multiple stages ranging from woodland clearings, an acoustic stage for performers, a sprawling forest dance floor, an indoor barn outfitted with a kitchen, to a bell tent for intimate workshops and so much more.
