PART ONE - The start of the journey

Join a transformative journey - the festival begins with Contact Improvisation, a free form of movement that invites everyone, regardless of age or experience, to express their emotions through their bodies. Whether you are a dancer or not, you are welcome to join us for this playful exploration where you can connect with yourself and others. We'll also engage in light bodywork - an exercise where we work in groups of three, focusing on each other's bodies to help you relax and create a shared presence.

PART TWO - Opening to change

Once we have relaxed our bodies and minds, we continue our journey, with the next stop being breath and sound.

Join us for an intensive breathing session followed by a community singing session. Together, we will unleash our voices and explore their power as a tool for emotional release.

Singing together is more than music; it is a doorway to deeper self-expression and shared experiences. Opening up, discovering the power of our own voice and allowing it to flow freely is one of the most liberating things we can do for ourselves, and a new way to express our deepest emotions.

PART THREE - Deepening

Having connected through movement and sound, we come to the next stage which is about deepening.

We gather in a circle to share our stories, thoughts and feelings.

It is a place where honesty is the calling word - where words become bridges between our experiences. In this sharing circle we continue to explore the bonds that connect us and our own inner journeys.

PART FOUR - Creating

With open minds and attuned hearts, we come to the next stage of our journey: creation.

An opportunity to channel all your emotions and newfound energy into art. Step into the Creation Room with the Festival Analog team and unleash your creativity. Express what you've felt throughout the day - through patchwork, collage, poetry and writing.

This is your moment to free yourself, create freely and let yourself be fulfilled. PART 5 - Analogue life in a digital world

Alongside creative exploration, we will provide a space for shared inspiration and conversation about how to live a more analogue life.

How can we find balance in a world dominated by screens?

Join us as we explore ways to disconnect from the digital world and reconnect to the present moment.

PART SIX - Celebration

To celebrate our journey, we are preparing a special surprise - a celebration that honours the body that has accompanied us through this experience.

You can choose from a variety of designs by a tattoo artist, or even book a personal appointment.

Tattooing is an ancient tradition where we turn our skin into a canvas to carry memories, secrets and experiences we don't want to forget.

This ritual has connected us for thousands of years, allowing us to carry our stories and celebrate our bodies and life itself.

PART SEVEN - Immersion in music

As the bells ring to signal the final leg of our journey, we are ready to let go of everything.

Entering into a new space where sound and silence merge, where the body is at rest, we experience together four different worlds, guided by four artists, in a completely analog way. This last part is an immersion in music, movement and emotions - a space like you have never experienced before.

The end of the journey

As our journey together comes to an end, we ask you to take these experiences home with you. Sleep, rest and let your body and mind recharge.

Keep your phone off, reflect on the day and allow yourself to experience the fullness of the experience.

Remember what it means to be present, to connect, and to live the moment. Our purpose is to

To bring the journey to the city

Our journey is not just a festival, but a guide to everyday life in the noisy city.

Our aim is to show that it is possible to create connection, peace and creativity in such a place. Festivals often take us out of our lives, giving us the opportunity to retreat and forget about everyday life, but Festival Analog is about continuity - about bringing the spirit of the festival into our urban lives and keeping it alive in our hearts, bodies and minds.

We want to give you the tools to get in touch with yourself and your body, not only in moments of retreat, but also in the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

These practices are accessible to anyone, anywhere, offering an alternative to the habits of the digital world that often leave us stressed and disconnected.
