Rest ~ Recharge ~ Renew

Stradbally, Co. Laois. 14th – 16th August 2026

Nourish & Flow – A restorative wellness festival where rest takes centre stage

Now in its fourth year, Nourish & Flow has grown organically into a much-loved summer gathering, welcoming guests back year after year for its calm, supportive atmosphere and deeply restorative experience.

Set in the peaceful grounds of Ballykilcavan, Stradbally, Co. Laois, Nourish & Flow offers a gentle three-day escape for those ready to slow down, switch off, and reconnect. Each August, we come together for a relaxed “restfest” a weekend where rest is honoured, relaxation is encouraged, and doing less is definately enough.

Across the weekend, you’ll enjoy an unhurried blend of restorative movement, thoughtful talks & workshops, nourishing food, and time to simply be. Guests can also unwind in the Nature Spa, with hot tubs, sauna sessions, cold plunges, and pre-booked therapeutic treatments designed to help you fully let go.

Stay in luxury glamping accommodation, with a range of tent options to suit different comfort levels and budgets, all designed to support deep rest and a close connection to nature.

This is more than a weekend away. It’s a chance to pause, breathe, and return home feeling grounded, restored, and renewed.

Join us this August and give yourself permission to truly rest at Nourish & Flow.

WORKSHOPS

This year, we’ve gently expanded our workshop offering, creating even more space to explore, experience, and enjoy.

With a wider range of facilitators and sessions across the weekend, there’s a beautiful mix of movement, rest, creativity, and connection to choose from. While there is more on offer, everything has been carefully scheduled to keep the pace calm and considered, allowing you to experience as much as you’d like without feeling overwhelmed.

At Nourish & Flow, we’re always drawn to workshops that feel a little different, experiences that invite you to try something new, step slightly outside your comfort zone, and reconnect with yourself in unexpected ways.

Whether you’re drawn to stillness, creativity, movement, or something you’ve never tried before, there’s something here for you.

“Attending Nourish and Flow last year was the best gift I gave myself. From the moment I arrived I felt the stresses and to do lists evaporate as I stepped into a place of beauty, tranquility, a space for me to let go for a weekend and breathe. I felt fully taken care of. Everything you could wish for from a luxurious glamping festival. The only downside is it comes to an end”

— Jemma Kenny, Co Dublin
