Rise Festival, located in Overton, NV, has been hosting an awe-inspiring communal ceremony for the past nine years. This immersive three-part festival seamlessly blends Art, Music, and Light into a magical and elevating experience for tens of thousands of kindred spirits who gather in the Mojave Desert.
Upon arrival, attendees are each given two lanterns to inscribe with their hopes, dreams, fears, and intentions, culminating in a collective art project where the lanterns are lit and released twice per night. The festival offers three distinct spaces: The PATH for art and meditation, The Compass for the World's Largest Sky Lantern Ceremony, and The Horizon for an epic dance party under the desert sky.
