Chittick Lodge, Gerringong – Ocean Breeze & Community Connection
The ocean breeze is calling us back again! Spiritfest returns to Chittick Lodge in Gerringong for our annual Summer Retreat, inviting all – both oldtimers and newcomers – to join for a rejuvenating weekend filled with Satsang, deep connection, and the warm embrace of community.
About Spiritfest
Spiritfest is an all-inclusive gathering of yogis who have been coming together for over 25 years to nourish mind, body, and spirit. Our retreat is a celebration of sentient vegetarian food, yoga, meditation, and uplifting workshops, all designed to foster peace, harmony, and holistic well-being.
Whether you’re a seasoned attendee or joining us for the first time, you’ll find yourself amongst like-minded friends, creating space for new connections and cherished reunions.

• Satsang – Share wisdom and heart-centred conversation in a supportive environment.
• Yoga & Meditation – Ease into tranquility with daily sessions to help you reconnect with your inner self.
• Enlightening Workshops – Dive into teachings based on yoga principles and philosophy, suitable for all levels.
• Kiirtan – Experience the beauty of devotional singing and create an uplifting vibration of love throughout the weekend.
• Delicious Vegetarian Food – Enjoy nourishing, sentient meals lovingly prepared for the Spiritfest community.
Friday Night Kiirtan Concert
We open our weekend with a beautiful kiirtan concert on Friday night, featuring our friend and sister Jyoshna Le Trobe alongside other talented musicians and kirtanians from our vibrant community. Let the music carry us into a space of unity and joy as we set the tone for the days to come.
All Are Welcome
At Spiritfest, inclusivity is at our heart. The organising team – a group of dedicated women – hold values and philosophy in alignment with Ananda Marga, ensuring every participant feels valued and supported.
Come as you are, and share in the spirit of kindness, learning, and celebration by the sea. Whether it’s your first retreat or you’ve been with us for years, you’ll find a welcoming home at Spiritfest.

We look forward to being with you all again in January 2026, by the ocean in Gerringong. It’s more than a retreat – it’s a gathering of hearts, a tapestry of song and spirit, and a chance to rediscover peace amidst the beauty of the South Coast.
