Manifest

Third year of Shayana is coming and possibilities are endless! Last year was a blast, and we continue to grow and evolve. People that love incredible cocktail of good music and breathing of the night forest are welcome!

We have different people celebrating with us. Those, who love all night long dancing, and those, who value deep and aware music listening near the campfire while drinking aged pu-erh. Everybody is important to us!

In year 2018, we plan to introduce a fresh wave into festival, and change stages concept to bring visitors new sense of wonder. We'll announce our plans gradually, so bear with us.

FAQ

What is the meaning of the festival name?

Shayana is Hindu female name that means "Gift of the gods". We think that the festival is our gift to ourselves. Making the party for everyone, we grow as people and bring a little bit of kindness to this planet. That's why your support and participation is so important.

What is Shayana and when it came to being?

Shayana existed since the dawn of times. It never started and it will never end, we just haven't heard about it before. Now you know the truth!

What about the booze?

We do not advice bringing alcohol to the festival, because its delicate and friendly atmosphere can suffer from this. If you still insist, please do not use glass bottles. Also, please don't start campfires by yourselves, we got this for you. Please, clean up after yourself.

Festival got magical guards. They are kind, but strict, and will ensure safety and comfort for everybody. Don't be afraid of them, they are here for your own security. Remember, we are all guests of Shayana and as guests should be respectful of local rules.

Where we can sleep?

Shayana is open air festival, and in May it can be quite breezy at night in Latgale! You can sleep and replenish your forces in the tent that you should bring by yourself. Please take everything necessary for comfortable sleepover in nature, most important being the sleeping bag. If you are not used to spending the night in forest, you can rent good tourist equipment at our friends in tourist club "Snowdrop" (Daugavpils)

Isn't it too cold in May at night?

Statistics tell us that temperature rarely drops below +6 degrees Celsius. Make sure you have appropriate clothes. We will keep you warm using positive energy and kindness, but this is not always enough. There will be big campfires on the territory, where you can warm up and drink some hot aromatic tea or herbal infusions.

But even better is to use true Shayanic way to get warm - go the Energy Field stage and rock the dancefloor!
