OUR MOMENT ASKS US TO CHOOSE: COMFORT OR COURAGE?

OUR MOMENT ASKS US TO CHOOSE: COMFORT OR COURAGE? ❤ We're living in a time when the old ways of gathering, of celebrating, of building community are being challenged. Corporate festivals strip culture for profit. Social media replaces real connection.keeps us looking away when we need each other to see clearly.

But what if this discomfort is actually an invitation?

For 10 years, Earth Beat has been quietly experimenting with another way. Just 3,000 people at a time, but doing it differently—creating the diversity of a village in one event where difficult conversations aren't avoided but held with care. Where we've discussed vaccine mandates, genocide, and the systems that shape our world, because when we look away from the pain of any people, we diminish their humanity and our own.

Our symbol—two interwoven hearts—reminds us that everything in existence has both light and dark sides. We gather on the equinox because balance isn't found by avoiding the shadow, but by bringing both into conscious relationship.

As founders, we're also being called to face our shadows. This Give-a-Little exists because despite our hearts being in the right place, we've made financial missteps. We're learning that good intentions don't always create sustainable systems. This is part of our work: meeting our shortcomings with honesty.

Last Sunday, we scratched the surface of possibility for what wants to emerge next. The meeting revealed something vital: we're part of a global network of experiments proving that community-led culture can face reality without flinching. We are a baby beat in the great beat of the earth.

The questions that emerged:
How do we deepen our capacity to hold both celebration and challenges? How do we grow this experiment in brave community?

In a world that profits from our looking away, gatherings like ours become crucial as a practice ground for facing hard truths with open hearts. Now, we need your support to hold us through this threshold by standing with us in the messy, beautiful work of navigating change.

Our moment asks us to choose: comfort or courage.
Help us continue choosing courage.

Take a moment and think about the vibe at Earth Be

Take a moment and think about the vibe at Earth Beat. ✨ Does it generate a consistent atmosphere? One that you can count on to feel connected, grounded, or hopeful?

Did you contribute as a musician, presenter, facilitator, healer or volunteer? Maybe you contributed as a father, a dancer, a lounger, a learner or an organizer?

What is it and what do you want it to be? Is it just a festival? Can it be a way we can expand the power of hope and love one Earth Beat at time, and be a part of something big that takes over the world?

Let's make it happen!

💌 A NOTE FROM THE HEART OF EARTH BEAT ❤ Give

💌 A NOTE FROM THE HEART OF EARTH BEAT ❤ Give a little to keep this kaupapa alive! Let’s clear the way for metamorphosis. The Earth Beat organising team has worked tirelessly the last 10 years, as a labour of love. And now, we need your support.

🌸 GO TO OUR GIVE A LITTLE PAGE

If you’ve been part of Earth Beat—whether as a parent watching your kids light up with joy, a volunteer giving time and energy, or someone who came to reconnect with what matters—you know this gathering is built on more than just good times. It’s built on purpose, care, and a deep commitment to doing things differently. If you shared a hug that felt like home, if you left feeling more alive, more connected, more possible—you already know why this matters.

Earth Beat 2025 was a beautiful success in many ways. However, we’re currently facing a shortfall of $29,784. One hurdle came when Auckland Council couldn’t provide water, forcing us to truck it in—adding $9,000 to our costs.

Unlike many festivals, we choose not to rely on alcohol sales or corporate sponsorship, and we welcome children for free—because we believe in making this space accessible to all, especially the next generations. These are values we stand by, and we carry the weight of these choices ourselves.

We’ve always committed to integrity and transparency—sharing not just the magic, but the mess. Your support lets us honour the people who held this festival with their sweat and spirit—and helps us clear the ground for sturdier seeds for the future.

Please give generously. If everyone who came to Earth Beat gives just $10, we can close the gap—but if you’re able to give more, it will mean the world.

Mā te kotahitanga e ora ai te kaupapa—through unity, the kaupapa lives.

Some more glimpses of the magic we shared together

Some more glimpses of the magic we shared together. 🤩 We're still buzzing from these 5 days. Pinching ourselves to see if it was for real. So many profound moments of connection. We love this community! So much, creativity, wisdom and love. ❤ These photos captured by Angie LC, Ignacio Nabulen and Hans Hockey 📸🙏

🤩 FIVE DAYS OF WONDER ✨ Dancing, playing, sha

🤩 FIVE DAYS OF WONDER ✨ Dancing, playing, sharing, loving—together. 💜 We came from all walks of life—different ages, stories, and worldviews—yet for five powerful days, we lived as one village, fully present in this moment of connection.

We witnessed what’s possible when we lead with empathy: mutual respect, care, and generosity woven through every interaction. It was a living glimpse into the kind of world we know is possible. Thank you for showing up—not just to attend, but to participate, to contribute, to co-create. A reunion of souls, a celebration of our shared humanity.

Your light is what made Earth Beat shine. For that, we are endlessly grateful. 🙏

🎬 Nabulen, Collin, Jasper, Keri, Nemo 🔥 Thanks for capturing these moments of joy! 😁

🌅 With Full Hearts ❤ We Say THANK YOU 🌿 As

🌅 With Full Hearts ❤ We Say THANK YOU 🌿 As the sun sets on Earth Beat 2025 and we cross the threshold from summer into autumn, we carry with us the resonance of something truly profound. For five days we co-created a space that became more than a festival—it became a reflection of who we are and who we’re becoming, together.

We danced beneath sun-drenched skies, sang our hearts open under the stars, and allowed ourselves to be moved—to tears, to joy, to stillness, to transformation. As light and dark came into balance on the equinox, we embrace the full spectrum of our shared humanity. The shadows were welcomed. The love was abundant. We met each other there—in the middle—with open hearts.

This gathering was a weaving of many threads. To the kaimahi, our tireless production crew, to the contributors, artists, musicians, performers, healers, and storytellers—thank you for bringing your gifts, your passion, and your presence.

To the wisdom keepers, to Te Uri-o-Hau, Ngāti Whātua, thank you for holding us on this land with grace and mana. Your generosity grounds our journey in reverence and reminds us of the deeper rhythms at play.

Earth Beat is nothing without its people. And this year, you came with courage, with curiosity, with love. The thanks are endless, because the beauty was endless.

The beat continues—not just in the music, but in the way we show up, the way we care, the way we love in our homes, our families and all parts of our lives.

One Heart. One Love. One Beat. 🥰
