On Sunday June 28th, the festival we vision into being, and prepare for all year long happens! We are the Sound Arts Coordinators for the Mandala Yoga Festival and we’re beyond words excited for this year’s Main Stage and Gathering Grasses Live Music and Flow Arts! This fest is FREE and open to the whole community, it’s family friendly, and amazing! (6.28, 9am - 5pm, Pierce Park, Appleton)
And! It’s not just yoga! It’s so much more! Yes, there are lots of yoga and meditation classes to choose from (even fully relaxing/lying down ones!), AND… There is LIVE MUSIC all day, a vibrant vendor village, food trucks, children’s activities, and more.
Allow us to tell you more about the part of this fest that we have the honor of co-creating! It’s going to be pure magic! Come experience it!
Did you know that Live Music is a beautiful and integral part of the yoga festival experience? It is!
And at Mandala Yoga Festival, you can enjoy all of the music, all day long ... free and open to all.
This year’s Sound Arts Odyssey 2026 invites you to immerse and elevate — join us for our uniquely interactive concert experiences happening all day at the Main Stage and Gathering Grasses.
Whether you join the musical journey for a while between yoga classes or immerse yourself for the whole day, you're welcome! Flow in, flow through, bask, dance, sing, relax, follow your bliss!
Our Sound Arts Coordinators, Savi and Mark Gehrke are beyond grateful and so honored to collaborate with the amazing artists, bands, and musicians joining us this year! They feel the vision and they're ready to bring it to life for everyone!
The journey begins with an Opening Ceremony featuring indigenous flute and drums, leading into Relaxatone's atmospheric, ethereal awakening sounds ... followed by Brilliant Bliss Band bringing the heart of yoga mantra music ... and then World Duo - a grooving fusion of world rhythms and guitar ... followed by Natural Satellite taking us all to our soul's happy place with their heart-led lyrics, angelic voice, cello and sax ... leading to the summit of our journey with an All-Artist Collab Jam featuring Karli's 'Do You?', and an intuitive, in the moment improv jam that will have you dancing and celebrating the human spirit! As we come in for a landing, we'll honor the journey and the festival day with a Closing Ceremony + Team Gratitude!
In addition to the Live Music, we're grateful for our Creatives from Empowered Belly Dance Troupe, Fox Valley Flow Jams, and Oshkosh Rhythm Institute who will add magic and high vibes with dance, flow arts, and drumming on the Gathering Grasses in front of the stage all day.
Invite your friends! Come join us! Your Sound Arts Odyssey awaits!
