Hidden Hearth is an intimate festival of community, connection, creativity, celebration and empowerment. We will honour the end of the outward half of the year, reflect on the bounty we have experienced throughout the brighter months, and let go as we prepare to turn inward for the darker winter months.

A warm welcome to the glowing soul that is Nicola Halliday, who has taken part in Hidden Hearth and many other conscious, connected festivals across Ireland. We love to see community builders like her working their magic in spaces like Hidden Hearth and beyond.

Nicky has been working with Costa Rican Cacao for over 8 years and feels so much joy in sharing this beautiful medicine with others. This autumn she will be hosting a stall in our makerā€™s market, and holding an ecstatic cacao dance in the Sanctuary. Look out for her stall in our forest market space, she also creates the most divine sweets and treats, including brownies and stuffed Palestinian dates!

Join us in the forest through TicketTailor and our website at the link in our bio!

With just one month to go until we gather for Hidden Hearth againā€¦

Our Final Release tickets are now available! It has been beautiful to see the outpouring of warmth, memory and grĆ” for this festival: and it will be a beautiful end-of-year gathering to bring us all together one final time. There is huge energy building behind festivals like Hidden Hearth, each with their own unique flavour, direction and vision, and guided by the common goal of building community.

So letā€™s build our earthy, wild, seedling community together this Autumn in the forest at Lisnavagh in Carlow. Join us to share your magic with us and nourish something truly unique: and leave feeling refreshed and connected.

The time is nighā€¦
Thank you for your trust and for joining us on this journey!
We are putting together a very special line-up of artists and facilitators for this gathering on the cusp of Samhain.

Hidden Hearth is held and hosted by a community of talented humans who offer up their time to many independent festivals throughout the year.
This year-round nomadic tribe creates a momentum and skill-sharing energy that moves mountains wherever they go.
Ireland is blessed to have such a connected, masterful and unique group of humans who come together to create unique events, each with their own flavor and energy, culminating in our gentle festival in October.

What makes Hidden Hearth unique?

We will be gathering in sobrietyā€¦

In the cold tendrils of autumnā€¦

In honour of our roots, our ritual and the power of the land.

This gathering is like none other in Ireland today, and is made unique by every attendee, every selfless contribution and every member of our community.

We cannot wait to show you what we have planned!
Stay tuned for next weeksā€™ first line-up announcement.
Thank you āœØ

Hidden Hearth is one of Irelandā€™s rare and special sober spaces.

What does that mean?

Sobriety is defined as a state of non-intoxication, embodied in yourself entirely, unaffected by alcohol or substances. In Ireland, almost every social situation has alcohol present in some form, and Irelands relationship to substances is a constantly evolving.
What does this do to the nature of our gatherings? What long-term effect does this have on our relationship with ourselves and our community, both positive and negative?

We do not believe that everyone must be sober all the time. However, the container of a sober festival is a social experiment we all collectively enter for a weekend. It is a rare opportunity to dance to music with 100s of other sober people, or to attend a talk or a workshop entirely in your own self. It can be something you try just this once, or part a journey you are already on yourself!

Hidden Hearth invites us to share our energy and curiosity in this unique weekend of magic, to discover and confront and unlock different levels of connection and knowledge of ourselves.
We know it will be a magical experience for everyone attending and canā€™t wait to share it with you all.

What does Hidden Hearth embody?

Returning in 2026 has been an eye-opening experience, as messages of excitement started to pour in, and people showed us what Hidden Hearth meant to them.
We knew the energy created here was important, and as we spoke with returning artists, volunteer applicants and crew members, we have gained a deeper understanding of the meaning and message of Hidden Hearth.

A closing to the festival season: while Hidden Hearth is not the end of Irelandā€™s festival season, the message is one of slowing, grounding and resting. A cold weather festival, where bodies are wrapped in layers and scarves and coatsā€¦ a sober space where connection is authentic and honest and rawā€¦ a place for deep healing, guided by a world of modalities, spiritual paths and practices.

A place to question what it is that makes us human, what brings us to gather, why we share space and energy and time in festival settings. A new way to experience collective energy in Ireland, far from alcohol and substances. A place for the whole family to play, bond and experience. A land-based gathering of souls, shaking off anything that no longer serves us in a supportive, curious community.

These spaces hold us for three short days, vessels for shared learning and transcending.
If this sounds like something you would be called to experience in the autumn forests of County Carlow, our gates are wide open. Bring your full and true self, and let Hidden Hearth unfold around you.

Fire, movement, connection and a shared visionā€¦

We are so looking forward to letting Hidden Hearth unfold at Lisnavagh House again in 2026. This community of creatives, artists and space holders creates a magnificent celebration at the cusp of winter and autumn when they gather, honouring the change of the season.
As we approach the peak of summer, the solstice, we are planning and building and dreamingā€¦
We look forward to sharing the magic again!
