A Homecoming. A Gathering of Tribes. A Celebration of the Human Spirit.
In 2026, Ängsbacka turns 30. Three decades of hearts meeting, music rising, tears softening, bodies remembering themselves, and strangers becoming family. To honour this living legacy, we are creating something beyond ordinary.
Then the No Mind Festival opens, and this year the circle widens. We welcome teachers, musicians, and communities from many traditions, each bringing their own way of praying, dancing, healing, celebrating, listening, and being together.
You are invited to come as yourself, or together with your friends, your practice community, your choir, your family.
We come as one as tribes gather here. This No Mind is both a homecoming and a beginning, a meeting place where the stories of the past and the longing of the future sit together at the same table. Here, the old songs return, not to repeat themselves, but to be lived again in a new way.
Before No Mind begins we will host Ängsbacka’s 30 year’s Anniversary, a two-day event with the people who have built Ängsbacka over the years: founders, long-time workshop leaders, musicians, crew, and all those who have carried this place in their bones. It will be a reunion of the old tribes filled with stories, laughter, remembering, and re-rooting our shared ground. This unique event will soon become bookable as an add-on for everyone that books No Mind 2026.
Join the festival from July 4 till July 10, 2026

No Mind 2026 invites you into a heart-opening celebration of unity, creativity, and transformation. Here, lifelong connections are formed, stories are shared, and the collective spirit of love reminds us of what it means to truly belong.

Children’s Village
At the heart of No Mind lies a vibrant world created especially for children and youth, a festival within the festival filled with wonder, play, and discovery.
The youngest participants have their own vibrant world to explore. Babies are at the heart of the garden, while the Children’s Village fills the nearby field with creativity, play, and forest adventures. On the other side of the garden, pre-teens and youth gather in their own camps, creating spaces for connection, expression, and the unique magic of No Mind.
The program is lovingly held by our dedicated coordinators Caroline and Nadia, together with an experienced team who welcome everyone between the ages of 4 and 18. Each day brings new adventures such as forest games, creative workshops, storytelling, movement, and art.
The Children’s Village is more than a playground. It is a place where friendships grow, confidence blossoms, and the spirit of community comes alive.
If you have any questions about the No Mind Children’s Village, you are warmly invited to contact the coordinators through our contact form.
Child care
During specific hours each day, we offer child care in the Children’s Village for children aged 4 and above. It is a fun, creative, and safe space where parents can leave their children while attending workshops or taking time for themselves. Our team includes staff who speak both English and Swedish to ensure that every child feels understood and cared for.
For younger children between 1 and 3 years old, parents are welcome to join workshops together with their child or spend time in the Children’s Camp or the No Mind Baby Tent. Children under 4 years old cannot be left unattended.
No mind baby
A cozy and welcoming space for our youngest children, where you and your child can relax, play with toys, and meet other parents and little ones. The space is open during the same hours as the Children’s Village, though it is not always staffed and is not a place where you can leave your child. Throughout the week, gentle activities such as singing circles, talks, and sharings will be offered.
Children (4-9 Years old)
The Children’s Village is open to all children and parents to socialise, play, paint, sing, tell stories, roll in the grass, make new friends, and enjoy all the joyful moments that are part of the No Mind week.
PRE-TEENS (10-12 Years old)
Pre-teens have their own space close to the Youth Camp. They join some workshops together with the youth and are always welcome to participate in all activities in the Children’s Village and the Creativity Tent. The pre-teens are introduced to sharing and practice it as a daily routine.
YOUTH (13-18 Years old)
Youth aged 13 to 18 have their own tent where they can gather for workshops, privacy, and relaxed time together. A dedicated team holds space for them, and together they co-create a workshop schedule that reflects the group’s interests each year. Sharing circles take place daily as part of their regular routine.
On the first day of the festival, there will be a mandatory information meeting for all parents, and it is important that everyone with a child or youth attends.
Nadia and Caroline have been lovingly organizing the Children’s Village for many years. If you have any questions, you are always welcome to reach out through our contact form.
We look forward to sharing another magical No Mind week with you and your family.
