Q&A’s

Tickets & Info

Where do I buy tickets?

Tickets for Realisation 2023 (29th June to 2nd July) are now on sale and can be bought here via TicketTailor.

Do you offer discounts or bursaries?

We don’t offer any discount on tickets – the price is already heavily subsidised by the generosity of our supporters in particular Perspectiva, and does not represent the true cost of attending the Realisation Festival. However we are able to offer a limited number of bursaries if your circumstances mean that you would be unable to attend otherwise.

If you’d like to apply for a bursary place, please fill in this short form. If you have any questions email Olivia on realise@realisationfestival.com

Please note that the majority of our bursary places cover the price of the camping ticket only, so you will need to bring camping gear, or cover the cost of an upgrade to a Glamping Bell Tent or Room yourself.

How do I get there?

The nearest station to St Giles House is Salisbury (about 30 minutes drive).

Can you cater for my dietary requirements?

Yes that is fine.  Olivia our event manager will be contacting all ticket-holders in the middle of May to ask about dietary requirements and any particular access needs, and to give advice about travel plans. If you would like to get in touch before then, please email Olivia@realisationfestival.com

What is the Realisation Festival?

A non-profit gathering for the mind and spirit, featuring stimulating talks and embodied workshops at a breathtaking location. A chance to link the “I”, “we” and “wider world” through critical dialogue and soulful exploration.

You’ll hear incredible speakers, take part in stimulating conversations, enjoy delicious food and live music. Workshops will encourage you to think, feel and explore what change looks like, and reimagine what we are capable of.

The Realisation Festival is for anyone who wants to engage with transformative and innovative ideas about the world and society, and who long for an opportunity to share their experiences, thoughts, experiments and practices.
