We are so excited to attend Texas Eclipse Festival, a once in a lifetime experience on April 5-9. What makes it so ‘once in a lifetime?’ It’s happening during a total solar eclipse! A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon aligns perfectly between the Sun and Earth, casting a shadow that completely obscures the Sun. The Moon will gradually cover the Sun, the sky darkens, creating an eerie twilight reminiscent of dawn or dusk. This rare phenomenon will be the last total solar eclipse visible in North America until 2044.
The last time they hosted this festival was back in 2018 in Oregon. The venue - Reveille Peak Ranch located in Burnet, Texas - is the point where the solar eclipse will be in totality for the longest, up to 5 minutes long. It is also in a very secluded area and untouched by light pollution, to provide optimal eclipse viewing! It is only an hour away from major cities like Austin and San Antonio. Attendees are travelling near and far to experience this cosmic encounter that has been centuries in the making.
The festival programming is absolutely stacked! It has seven different stages that showcase every music genre under the sun. From jam bands to dubstep to house music, there’s something for everyone to enjoy and so much new music to discover. The music is just one facet of this multidimensional experience. This festival boasts a plethora of wellness workshops, speaker panels, yoga classes, space exhibits, immersive art installations, and so much more. There is a strong emphasis on holistic growth and self-discovery. Attendees can explore the depths of their creativity, elevate their consciousness, and forge connections that transcend the boundaries of space and time. Texas Eclipse Festival is truly more than just a musical festival, it’s a journey into the heart of the cosmos, a celebration of creativity, curiosity and human connection.
