Boom Festival is more than just an event; it’s a movement. Every two years, this biennial gathering set against the scenic backdrop of Idanha-a-Nova Lake in Portugal, magnetises a global community, merging psychedelic culture, music, and sustainable living into an awe-inspiring experience.

Diving deeper, attendees are greeted with an eclectic fusion of psytrance, world music, and live performances, reverberating with the festival’s ethos of peace and consciousness. Yet, Boom’s allure extends beyond its soundscapes. It catalyses change with dedicated zones for holistic workshops, visual art installations, and discussions on environmental activism.

The next Boom Festival is slated for 17 – 24 July 2025. Its commitment to environmental sustainability, illustrated by eco-friendly infrastructures and waste-reducing initiatives, truly sets it apart. So, whether you’re seeking musical transcendence, spiritual growth, or eco-conscious conversations, Boom Festival provides the space to flourish. Be part of this transformative journey and let Boom’s essence resonate within.
