Body And Soul presents its own flight of fancy - a decadent secret of sorts. An independent festival with a heart shaped mind and a cutting edge soul, staging a modern celebration of the age old solstice tradition.

Kick off your sensible shoes and turn your back on ticking clocks for the summer solstice weekend. This June (21st - 23rd) 2013, the intimate other world of Body And Soul will be returning to the labyrinth of stone walled gardens, winding pathways and woodlands at Ballinlough Castle, with the same smattering of magic and mischief in a weekend, packed with an eclectic mix of live electronic and acoustic acts, holistic arts, green crafts, decadent dining, moonlit orchestras, a secluded soul kids garden, art installations and bubbling hot tubs in the forest.
