About this event
✨ SHINE – Ecstatic Dance Holiday
22–26 June 2027 · Gayatri Mandir
Arillas · Corfu · Greece
After the beautiful experience of our first edition, SHINE returns to Arillas for five more days of music, dance, connection and the simple pleasures of being together.
Last summer was truly special. The warmth of the people who gathered, the depth of the dances and the beauty of the moments we shared made SHINE everything we had hoped for.
At the heart of SHINE is the Gayatri Mandir, an extraordinary open-air dance floor surrounded by olive trees, overlooking the sea and the sunset. Considered by many to be one of the most beautiful dance floors in the world, its peaceful atmosphere, silence and natural surroundings made dancing there one of the most precious gifts of last summer.
SHINE is a holiday shaped around the joy of doing what we love to do most.
Five days of Ecstatic Dance, inspiring workshops, live music, morning practices and shared moments, guided by a carefully selected team of international DJs and facilitators.
Beyond the dance floor, Arillas invites us into its gentle rhythm. Sandy feet, salty skin, clay cliffs, sunsets, familiar smiles and delicious Greek food in its many cafés and traditional tavernas. Everything is within walking distance — the beach, the village, the dance floor and your accommodation — leaving plenty of time to swim, rest, explore, enjoy the local flavours, connect or simply be.
A gathering on a human scale, where music and movement bring people together from different parts of the world, and where there is room for both deep experiences and the simple pleasures of a Mediterranean summer at the beach.
To preserve the continuity of the experience and create a strong, supportive space for the group, SHINE is a five-day journey shared from beginning to end. For this reason, we offer full-event passes only, with no single-day tickets or individual access to dances, workshops or concerts.
We can't wait to return to this beautiful place and share another unforgettable holiday with you.
Come SHINE with us. ✨
