Experiences

The Shambhala Music Festival experience does not end when one leaves the stages; it is elevated by the beautiful offering of food and artisan market stalls designed to delight your senses. The Artisan Market is a shopping experience like no other. With clothing designed so thoughtfully they are a work of art themselves, positioned beside cozy furry hoods and essential oils so aromatic they transport you to another world, it may be hard to leave the market once you have entered. Every food vendor on site is hand-picked for Shambhala Music Festival, each one providing above and beyond service as well as food that will leave you wishing you had access to the meal all year round. Treat your tastebuds to whatever you may be craving, from leafy greens to deep-fried goodness.

The Shambhala Wish Tree is there for you to share wishes for yourself, loved ones, or the world. The stunning tree stands tall with its deep-rooted bark and lush green leaves, radiating warmth and openness.

With positivity and kindness hanging from its branches in the form of handwritten notes, the Wish Tree invites you to sit down and take a minute to reflect on all there is to be thankful for.

Shambhalove is in the air at Shambhala Music Festival; lovers can meet and friendships blossom. So what better way to tie the knot to your Shambhalove than with the sounds of bass music echoing through the Kootenay Mountains at the picturesque wedding chapel?!

The wedding chapel is first come, first served and doesn’t include officiants, photographers or food, so make sure that your guests and vendors have tickets to the festival to witness your special day.

If you need a break from dancing and exploring the farm, we invite our guests to experience the magic of the pristine Salmo River. Take a dip and cool off, hang out in a floatie and make new friends on the shore of the river, all with the Living Room Stage providing great tunes in the background.
