The Do Lab’s Lightning In A Bottle is a festival dedicated to celebrating the creative life with people passionate about making it happen. Here’s what a typical day at the festival looks like.
1. Praise the sun.
Yoga is an integral part of the 4 day (Do Lab created) festival’s experience. A great way to prepare yourself for the festivities to come.
2. There’s something for everyone.
Lightning In A Bottle is for people of all ages, colors, shapes, and mindsets. It’s never too early be spiritual.
3. Welcome to Temple of Consciousness.
The Lucent Temple is the place where you will be able to stretch and open your body core with yoga and movement, learn new skill that will assist you in being a positive force on the planet with speakers and workshops, experiment with new, traditional and indigenous skills.
“At the temple you will find an open sharing of information often locked behind doors unavailable to us in the ‘regular world’. At nighttime come dance to unique rhythms and music from around the world. The Healing Sanctuary is the place for massage and body work. You can bath in a Gong bath under the sun or get life changing advice from an Elder. Everything in the Temple is designed for body joy, mind broadening and heart opening. ” – Lighting In A Bottle website
4. So much music, such little time.
The Bamboo Stage, The Woogie Stage & The Lightning Stage. Three stages means three times the amount of fantastic music, mesmerising light shows, performances and spiritual transcendence.
5. At LIB you’re encouraged to discover your artistic side.
6. Drop by the The Living Village.
“The Living Village is cultural experiment born from the aspiration to share and understand what village life is how to bring that into a contemporary context. The intention is simple : Learn by doing and be collectively engaged to form and sustain a living atmosphere. ” – Lightning In A Bottle
7. Art installations that will leave you speechless.
8. Dance!
9. Last but no least, forget not to make friends and make merry.
LIB 2014 takes place between May 22-26 at the San Antonio Recreation Area in Bradley, CA. The focus of LIB is on absolute freedom. You are on your own schedule and get to decide exactly what you want to be doing at any given time. Lightning in a Bottle describes itself as “a celebration of Art, Sustainability, Music, Performance, and Life Itself.” It resembles a crossroads between spectacle and community: somewhere between the musical enormity of festivals such as Coachella or EDC and the visual art, musical taste, and sense of involvement at Burning Man.
