# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The Common Thread Restival
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 11 Jun, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Sun, 14 Jun, 2026 at 11:00 am (-06:00)
- **Event Description**: Imagine stepping away from the busyness of everyday life and into a space where rest and play coexist. Over three nights, you’ll be nourished with movement, creativity, nature, and community. You may arrive carrying the weight of daily life, but you’ll leave feeling lighter, renewed, and deeply connected, with a heart that remembers joy and a spirit that feels restored.

What’s a Restival? It’s part retreat, part festival. A retreat offers restoration, a chance to slow down, reflect, and be held. A festival brings play, celebration, and connection. At The Common Thread Restival, we weave the two together into a healing experience for women of all ages and stages.

Why "The Common Thread"? Because no matter our age, background, or story, women share something powerful that ties us together: courage, grace, resilience, and a desire for authentic connection. This gathering is about weaving those qualities into a tapestry of belonging, where every woman feels seen, supported, and celebrated.
