Bali’s Ubud Set To Welcome Return Of BaliSpirit Fest Next Month


-The Bali Sun

BaliSpirit Festival will be returning to The Yoga Barn in at heart of Ubud from the 7-11th May 2025. With just under a month to go until the biggest yoga, music, dance, and culture festival in Bali, Ubud is abuzz with preparations for the magical event.
  

In 2025 BaliSpirit Festival will be hosted at The Yoga Barn, and will expand into the grounds of neighbouring Puri Padi Hotel.

The Yoga Barn is a 90-minute drive from I Gusti Ngruah Rai International Airport, and with hundreds of attendees flying in especially for the event, BaliSpirit Festival 2025 promises to be bigger and more heartwarming than ever.

The BaliSpirit Festival Team shares “The Yoga Barn exemplifies the feeling of self-discovery, healing, and renewal while providing beautiful studios, large communal areas, and an amazing main stage perfect for the Bali Spirit Festival vibe.”

“The combination of both spaces in the center of town uplifts the vibration back to Ubud center, and offers YOU a variety of different experiences and environments that will make for a vibrant 4 days & 4 nights like no other!”

This year’s unmissable live music acts include Mike Love, Amaru Tribe, Mangala, Austin Supriatna Cater Hari Wijaya, The Sound Nomads, and Rumbo Tumba.

Incredible movement, dance, and yoga workshops will be on offer from the likes of Alfred Kendrick, Dhwani Dinakara Bahar, Forest Schrodt, Fareena Farid, Nadine McNeil and many more.

The festival spans over a huge area and yet never feels too crowded or overstimulating. The Grove Stage, also known as the main stage area, offers plenty of room for everyone to gather for headline acts, and the Tea Temple space in the Yoga Barn gardens offers attendees a space for intimate gatherings, soulful acoustic sessions, and deep reflection.

Over at the Spirit Pools there is always fun to be had with live DJs playing day and night and in the Love Quad, attendees can join scheduled dance classes and or many of the impromptu acro-yoga sessions that pop up over the course of the event.

This is all, of course, in addition to a jam-packed schedule of yoga, breathwork, healing sessions and live talks hosted across The Yoga Barn studios. For BaliSpirit Festival The Yoga Barn’s usual scheduling gets put on hold and every space, from The 1st to Studio Wayan, Studio Made, Studio Nyoman, Studio Ketut and beyond host lifechanging events for all in attendance.

There is a range of different ticketing options available to suit every budget and each attendee’s interest. The 4-Day BaliSpirit Festival Pass provides access to all events, day and night from the exclusive opening night events held on Wednesday 7th May, through til lights out on Sunday 11th May.

The 4-day pass costs IDR 10,400,000 and includes access to all workshops, all music events, and the opening night special events which are not to be missed. 


For those who are all about the music and are not too inclined to attend yoga, dance or healing workshops then the 4-Day Bali Music Festival Pass is a great option. Priced at IDR 5,600,00 the ticket includes access to all festival music events and the opening party on Wednesday 7th May.

Attendees with limited availability must be sure to check out weekend-only passes and single-day-only ticket options. Each weekend and day-only pass is also available with full access to workshops or music only. Single-day, music-only tickets cost as little as IDR 1,200,000.


BaliSpirit Festival is so much more than a community yoga event. Throughout every aspect of the festival, the mission and vision of the gathering can be felt deeply.

As the team describes, “The goal of the BaliSpirit Festival is to awaken and nourish each individual’s potential for positive change within, leading to positive change in our homes, in our communities, and around the world.”


“Through the beneficial and inspirational traditions of Yoga, Dance, and Music, the BaliSpirit Festival embodies the Balinese Hindu concept of Tri Hita Karana: living in harmony with our spiritual, social, and natural environments.”
