Testimonials

”
My favorite festival so far! This year was my first time at the Guardians Festival, and right after it ended, I was already looking forward to the next one. The community felt incredibly genuine, and among strangers, I felt at home and deeply at peace. A heartfelt bow to the organizers and the workshop facilitators.

Guardians Festival was a wonderful retreat into beautiful nature, within a community of warm-hearted people, with engaging content, workshops, and great music. I am deeply grateful to the Guardians Festival team for creating such a magical festival experience.
Jani Konjedic

This year, I attended the Guardians Festival for the first time, and certainly not the last. It was a precious, extraordinary, magical experience. The festival is a space filled with love, laughter, caring looks, long hugs, helping one another, singing and dancing around the fire, as well as tears—moments of personal release and healing, each exactly as needed. It is also a place to connect with the beautiful nature, where walking barefoot constantly invites you to feel more connected to our beloved Mother Earth. What stayed with me the most was the experience of helping to stir the ceremonial cacao. Wow! Singing while stirring and participating in the ritual and prayer with ceremonial cacao was something entirely new for me, yet so beautiful, sacred, and blessed—a meditative moment that lingered within me for a long time. In my heart, I feel immense gratitude for all that I experienced and for the new, intertwined paths with wonderful souls. Simply put, it was just so wonderful!

It’s hard to put into words what this festival felt like. Imagine days full of amazing workshops, each giving you a new experience and a fresh perspective on the world. Delicious food and drinks, soothing music from different performers. When the sun and dancing warm you up, the refreshing Kolpa river is right there to reset and revive you… and you’re experiencing it all with the most open-hearted, loving people. I’d say the festival gives you a feeling of what the world could be like without the fast pace and materialistic focus we’ve grown so used to. I wholeheartedly recommend it, and I’ll see you again next year!

I came to the festival alone – without expectations, but with a feeling that something greater was calling me. From the moment I arrived, I knew I had come to the right place. Guardians Festival gave me a sense of home among complete ‘strangers’ who instantly became my family. The ceremonies, collective creations, forest silence, and deep conversations opened my heart in ways that are hard to put into words. The feeling of safety, love, and freedom was so strong that, for the first time, I truly understood what it means to belong. I left full – connected, supported, and grateful. This was not just a festival; it was a transformation that I still feel today and will carry with me forever.

A festival full of lovely people. I have never been to a more heartfelt festival, where you can truly feel comfortable in your own skin. I genuinely felt that I could “undress” and be accepted just the way I am. The program was so rich – there was truly something for everyone. The nature, the music… absolutely incredible! I warmly recommend it to anyone who wants to warm their heart for a few days and enjoy a community where we can all simply be ourselves.

Thank you all for creating such an amazing space, for organizing a wonderful festival, and for the magic we experienced together as one big family. Thank you, Miha, thank you, Nika, and the entire team – for me, this festival was an unforgettable experience that I would gladly repeat. Let’s continue to nurture this love with every festival, even more.

Guardians Festival is truly something unique in Slovenia! From the very first moment, I felt the magic — the excellent organization, the stunning stages and venue, the beautifully woven program, and the heartfelt atmosphere that filled every corner. It was a joy to meet new people, to join rituals, workshops, and ceremonies, and also to guide my own session, Fermentation as Ritual. Guardians Festival is a rare gem, and I deeply admire how the team has created such an extraordinary experience. I would be delighted to return and contribute again in the future.

I love going to festivals, but Guardians Festival is truly different. For the first time, I could experience it together with my child and see the world through his eyes. He felt the festival as a safe playground for the soul... I watched him open his heart and connect with others so sincerely. For me, it meant everything to be both a mother and a co-creator, without having to choose one over the other. I am deeply grateful for this safe, magical community where I can nurture my child’s consciousness and lift it to a higher level from such an early age.
Katarina Skaza
”
Guardians Festival opened a window to a new magical world for me. I attended the Guardians Festival with open hands, mind, and heart, and I must say, it truly inspired me. Such a gentle space, full of people with soft and sincere energy, offering countless workshops that nurture both the mind and our physical skills, opening the path to a new dimension of life. I am so happy to have been part of this magical event!
Maja Mlekuž
”
For me, the Guardians Festival exceeded all expectations. It was an indescribably beautiful experience, full of fun and laughter, and even some tears, yet deeply transformative. I loved the heartfelt connection I felt with the other participants. I adored the music, the dancing, and the river. I am filled with gratitude for having been there, and without a doubt, I will return next year to this invaluable circle of people.
Igor Hrastovec
”
How to even put Guardians festival into words? Because it wasn’t just a festival. It was a journey, a gathering of souls, a sacred space where nature, music & spirit held us all. For me, it felt like stepping into a living portal, where moments carried medicine through connection, silence, movement, sound, presence. I got back home lighter, softer & more open. Grateful for the Guardians, for the land & for every being who shared their heart there. A special place to be & I am already looking forward to coming back next year.

The music program is the heart of the Guardians Festival.

Since ancient times, humanity has recognized the power of music to heal, awaken, and unite. We have created a diverse musical program, weaving together live performances, workshops, and sound baths. The festival will feature performances by Chantress Seba, Malte Marten, Natan Rabin, J Pool and many others.

For all lovers of electronic music, we have once again joined forces with our brothers and sisters from Sinergia, who have curated a vibrant daytime and nighttime program for the festival.
