What Is Solstice Festival?
Solstice Festival is Eagle's Nest's flagship music+arts gathering, held each December 19–21 around the winter solstice. Three days of live music, ecstatic dance, ceremonies, workshops, and wisdom talks, all set on the platform overlooking Lake Atitlán and the surrounding volcanoes. We celebrate the longest night as a moment to release the old year and welcome the new, together. Part of every chapter's profits funds education scholarships for our local Mayan community.
