FESTIVALS COLÓN PROVINCE 2023

In the serene surroundings of Playa Chiquita, Panama, the Tribal Gathering festival is set to mark another memorable edition in 2023. This isn't just a festival; it's a convergence of ancient traditions, modern music, and a celebration of global unity. From the 10th to the 16th of October, attendees will be treated to a unique blend of cultural experiences and musical performances.

A Meeting of Tribes and Tunes

Tribal Gathering is more than just a name; it's the essence of the festival. The event brings together tribal communities from around the world, focusing on regional and local tribal representatives. This provides a rare opportunity for attendees to immerse themselves in diverse cultures, traditions, and rituals. Coupled with this cultural immersion is a rich tapestry of musical performances, ranging from deep psytrance to global grooves.

Dance Under the Eclipsed Sun

A highlight of the 2023 edition is the annular solar eclipse on the 14th of October. This natural phenomenon, where the moon covers the Sun's center, leaving a "ring of fire" or annulus around the Moon, will be best viewed from the festival's location. The festival promises a magical experience as attendees can dance and celebrate under the eclipsed sun, making it a truly once-in-a-lifetime event.

A New Location with Natural Beauty

For this special edition, Tribal Gathering is moving from its usual beach spot to the highlands on the southern side of Panama. Nestled in the foothills of the Tabasará Mountains, the festival will be set beside the Río El Caño, surrounded by waterfalls and natural beauty. This change in location ensures that attendees get the best view of the annular eclipse and a fresh, new environment to explore.

A Festival with a Heart

Beyond the music and cultural experiences, Tribal Gathering stands out for its charitable endeavors. The festival is the primary charitable project of the public charity GeoParadise. Donations collected during the festival are used to run outreach programs throughout the year with the tribal representatives in attendance, ensuring that the spirit of unity and giving continues long after the festival ends.

For the Whole Family

Tribal Gathering is not just for adults. It's a family-friendly event, offering a safe and natural environment. The festival provides numerous activities suitable for children, from arts and crafts to hands-on workshops. It's a magical place where young ones can experience diverse cultures in harmony, making it an educational and fun experience for them.

Safety and Wellbeing

Understanding the intensity of festivals, Tribal Gathering has a dedicated harm reduction and psycare team. Working alongside the medical team, they ensure the mental well-being of attendees, providing a non-judgmental safe space for those who might find the festival over-stimulating.
