Story
Wallingford, Oxfordshire – Celebrate the longest day at the Grace & Gravity Summer Festival! This vibrant, free, family-friendly festival brings together wellbeing, aerial arts, and community spirit at Howbery Park to raise awareness for young suicide prevention with Papyrus.
"I started Grace & Gravity with the belief that movement and community are powerful tools for feeling good," says Yasmin, founder of Grace & Gravity. "This festival embodies that vision, offering the 'Grace & Gravity magic' of Yoga, Aerial Arts & Wellbeing to help you feel great, whilst supporting PAPYRUS and connecting with the South Oxfordshire community."
The festival offers diverse activities for all ages. Rejuvenate with open-air yoga sessions and witness spectacular aerial performances from our Flying Kids Club. Adults and children can even try circus skills like Aerial Hoop, Acro Yoga, and Aerial Yoga!
Beyond aerial fun, little adventurers can explore Howbery Park with our "Wild Child" checklist, discovering hidden treasures in Howbery Park's natural landscape. Families can also enjoy mindful colouring and contribute to a giant collaborative art piece.
Support local businesses at the curated "Indie Stalls," showcasing Oxfordshire's best. Here you'll find beautiful gifts, yummy food and so much more. Enhance your festival experience with exciting paid activities from some stallholders, such as SUP adventures and invigorating wild swimming.
Grace & Gravity proudly partners with PAPYRUS Prevention of Young Suicide, with a charity raffle raising vital funds and awareness.
