Plan

Interfusion is the largest indoor transformative festival in North America bringing together like-minded souls from across the US and beyond for four days of learning, healing, play and connection.

Interfusion Festival will take place at the 4 star Crystal Gateway Marriott Hotel: 1700 Richmond Hwy, Arlington, VA 22202.

While not required for Festival participation, we recommend that travelers consider staying at the hotel to emerge into the complete festival community experience.

The next festival theme is Ascension. When we ascend we come into alignment with the highest version of ourselves. We reclaim our wholeness and rise to our potential. Ascension is seating in the power of the fullness of who we are.

No partner is necessary. Partnerships may be created during workshops with instructors often providing an option to rotate with others to create the best learning environment possible. You may also choose to stay with one partner.

Absolutely. The festival has plenty of choices for beginners. Please refer to the full festival schedule before the event and look for offerings marked as “beginner” or “all levels” to plan your experience.

Beginning on Nov 28th, all pass holders will receive access by email to the Sched system to plan their experience. Pass holders may visit the Interfusion 2022 Sched Page at any time to log back in and access their personal schedules.
