Over dit evenement

Sunday 30 August 2026 · 12:00–22:00 · Dankjewellness @ De tuin van de smid, Leiden

One weekend a year, our polder turns into a festival. Wood-fired saunas, ice baths, live music from around the world, workshops and more — sweating, breathing, dancing and cooling off together until the sun goes down.

Our first edition drew visitors from Mexico to Norway to the Polderpad. "It feels like being with family," one of them said. That feeling is exactly why we do this.

Connecting by disconnecting. And home with a smile.
