SEPTEMBER 12-14, 2008
Earthdance, the Global Dance Festival for Peace, is the world’s largest simultaneous music and dance event that takes place each year in 60+ countries. Its goal is to inspire people all over the globe to support humanitarian causes. It aims to unite people through the universal language of music and dance while joining in a day of peaceful celebration and harmony. The objective is to create as many Earthdance events around the world as possible.
Pacific Domes has been working with Earthdance in Laytonville, California since 2001. Every year we sponsor the festival by providing event domes which are used for multiple purposes throughout the weekend. This year there were two domes at the event. The Lotus Temple was a 44 ft. dome that was decorated with various altars, plants and tapestries. It was furnished with lots of rugs and pillows and offered festival goers a peaceful environment to relax in during the daytime. At other times it was bustling with activity while workshops took place inside. The Temple of Electronica was a 60 ft. dome that lit up the night. It was mostly empty during daylight hours but when the sun made its descent, the music and lightshows took over. The atmosphere inside was like a nightclub with bands playing and people dancing until sunrise. The dome was full of festival energy!
Earthdance is expanding its circle to include anyone interested in world peace. At each event around the world, promoters donate at least 50% of their profits to a local charity. There are no conditions on how big or small an Earthdance celebration needs to be. We encourage you to participate on whatever level is comfortable for you, whether it’s a public or private event.
