- **Event Name**: YATRA FESTIVAL '26 in ritual with MO:DEM
- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 27 Feb, 2026 at 05:30 am – Mon, 02 Mar, 2026 at 04:30 am
- **Event Description**: Dear ???????, ???????, ????????, ???????, and ?????? ?????????, welcome to a once-in-a-lifetime journey into ?????, ??????, and sacred ??-????????.

As the wheel turns toward our fourth gathering in the sacred Cobb Valley, we return not just to a gathering, but to a remembering. A remembering that we are One, born of the same Source, walking each other home. A return to ancient truths, timeless rhythms, and the infinite dance of life that flows through all of us, together.

In ????, Yatra steps into a powerful new chapter. For the first time ever, we are honoured to collaborate in ritual with the visionary forces behind ??:??? ???????? (Croatia). Together, we will co-create an experience unlike any before, merging the wild heart of Aotearoa with the world vision of ????????? culture.

Mo:Dem (Momento Demento) Festival stands as a global beacon of the underground psychedelic movement, renowned for its uncompromising curation, immersive stage architecture, and devotion to psytrance, Mo:Dem has redefined what a transformational music festival can be. Rooted deeply in nature and community, it draws thousands from across the world to experience its unique blend of auditory precision, artistic expression, and technological resonance. www.modemfestival.com

This ????? ???? edition is not just a festival, it is a ????????, a pilgrimage, a world unto itself. To weave MO:DEM legacy into the fabric of Yatra is a sacred privilege and a moment of convergence for the global tribe.

This year’s creative theme, ??????? ????????????, invites us to honour what is already known deep in our bones. It’s a call to awaken ancestral memory, sacred connection, and the wisdom that lives within and around us.

Together, we will design and build a living temple of art, sound, wellness and ceremony, featuring a shared stage with MO:DEM, expansive immersive visuals, and a host of surprises from both Yatra and MO:DEM creative families. The result is a multidimensional experience rooted in unity, community, and co-creation, where every space is alive with intention, and every zone is a portal to transformation.

Yatra is not just a festival, it is a ceremony in motion. The entire gathering is held as one continuous sacred ritual, woven with deep intention and care. We begin with an Opening Ceremony to ground ourselves, honour the land, and set a shared intention. At the midpoint, an Integration Ceremony invites reflection and inner anchoring, and we close with a powerful Closing Ceremony to express gratitude and release. Each day is thoughtfully curated to preserve the purity and potency of the transformative journey, with every program and offering designed to deepen connection, expand awareness, and restore balance. This is the spiritual heart of Yatra — where sacred rituals, cultural blessings, and prayerful gatherings connect us to the land (whenua), our roots (whakapapa), and each other.

Yatra Festival, at its core, is a journey of self-discovery, artistic and musical exploration, and community sharing. It's like a small flower bud that slowly opens, petal by petal, until it transforms into a breathtaking kaleidoscope of experiences and personal growth. Each night, the festival transforms into a garden paradise brimming with unforgettable energy and deep, powerful magic.

On ???????? ????, in Cobb Valley, the stage is set for a magnificent undertaking as we embark on this life-changing and transformative experience. Together, we will create an atmosphere that is nothing short of extraordinary.

We look forward to the moment our individual journeys (Yatras) unite. A space where we can share our passions, find meaningful common ground and create lasting memories as a community whole.
