The Art of Festival Planning

Planning Floyd Yoga Jam is a lot like building a small town from the ground up. The moment one festival ends, we’re already gathering feedback from staff, volunteers, teachers, vendors, and attendees to shape the next one. Early planning involves everything from ticket launches and website updates to marketing, grants, sponsorships, yoga and music programming, and vendor coordination—the list goes on. But we won’t pull back the curtain too much; we want to keep some of the magic alive!
What we will say is this: we love doing this work, knowing it creates a meaningful and (hopefully) blissful experience for our Yoga Jam community. This is how we contribute to making the world a better place.
If you’re wondering where we’re going with this, here’s the heart of it: planning a festival is a marathon. And in the past two years, our program guide has felt like the last exhausting tenth of a mile. We were stretched thin, and it showed. Your survey feedback confirmed what we already knew—it needed more attention.
This year, we’re setting a fresh intention. We’re committed to crafting a program that includes the crucial details you need, especially in a WiFi-limited festival environment, so you can navigate and enjoy Floyd Yoga Jam with ease.
Thank you for being part of this journey, we can’t wait to share an even better experience with you this year!
