Rendezvous Party Retreat, Bellingen
January 26th - 28th 2024
Welcome to Rendezvous party retreat, three days of ceremony, celebration, wellness and wonder.
We gather on the first full moon of 2024 at Evermoore Retreat in Bellingen to dance into the new year
feeling aligned, inspired, and rejuvenated.
Your weekend will be lovingly facilitated by your hosts Rache Moore and Andre Meyer
with special guests Uncle Micklo, Luís Piazzetta, Dani J Smith, Body Alchemy and Angharad Dalton.
Celebrating and respecting Indigenous culture is one of our core values at Evermoore, and we are honoured to welcome local Gumbaynggirr elder Uncle Micklo to open the retreat with a smoking ceremony and welcome to country. Micko will set the tone for our weekend teaching us a few songs in local language, and sharing his humour, wisdom and ancestral stories.
Our dear friend and talented musician Luís Piazzetta will be joining us to share a Brazilian drumming workshop and beautiful medicine songs as part of our cacao ceremony.
2024 - Year of the Dragon.
Our theme for this gathering is Forest Creatures, inspired by the enchanting nature of Evermoore, as well as our entering the coveted Year of the Dragon. According to Chinese astrology we are stepping into a year of growth, prosperity and empowerment, this will be woven throughout our three day experience, including:

The moment you arrive on this very special Gumbaynggirr country, you will feel at ease, and welcomed by the mountains, river and vibrant nature all around.
