Envision Festival
Costa Rica
Sometimes the Sanctuary encounters people, places and gatherings in the wider world that carry a familiar frequency. This page is one of those recognitions.
It is not a claim of ownership, partnership or official representation. It is a doorway, held open with care.
Why this page exists
Aetheric Renovation is interested in practical examples of people reconnecting with land, creativity, music, community, wellbeing and more careful ways of living.
When something in the wider world genuinely shares those roots, ARC should be able to point toward it without absorbing it. Envision Festival is one such gathering we wanted this community to be able to find.
The work remains theirs. The recognition is ours.
Why it resonates
Envision describes itself as a celebration of love, unity and connection to nature, organised around eight public pillars. ARC is a different organisation with a different form. The overlap is in the questions, not in the brands.
Nature
Envision gathers in a reforested festival home at Rancho La Merced, in Uvita, Costa Rica, beside a living coastal corridor. ARC also treats land, canopy and ordinary ecological attention as part of renovation, not decoration.
Community
Envision names community as the heart of the gathering. ARC builds public rooms where people can arrive without a pitch. Both are attempts, in different scales, to make meeting one another less extractive.
Music and art
Music and art are two of Envision’s own pillars. ARC Music Productions and the Sanctuary treat sound and craft as part of a living culture, not as a wellness claim.
Movement and health
Envision holds movement and health as public pillars, alongside workshops and embodied practice. ARC’s Root of Wellbeing starts with rest, food, movement and care without turning them into a programme.
Education
Envision says it wants to provide tools that can be integrated into ordinary life, or that might shift a path entirely. ARC’s chambers exist for the same reason: useful knowledge that can be used after the visitor has gone home.
Sustainability
Envision publicly organises environmental work through its foundation, Somos El Cambio, with a focus on preservation and restoration. ARC’s principle is close: plant a seed, watch another garden grow.
The experience
On its own site, Envision describes a seven-day gathering that weaves music with art, movement, education, wellness, workshops and time in the surrounding land. The point, as they tell it, is not only to attend performances.
Music

Spirituality
Those eight words are Envision’s own pillars. ARC does not need to translate them into Sanctuary language. It is enough to notice that a gathering can be built around more than spectacle.
Programme details, artists, passes and on-site arrangements belong to Envision and change. This page does not freeze them.
Costa Rica
Envision’s current home is Uvita, on Costa Rica’s Pacific side. The festival site they name is Rancho La Merced, neighbouring Marino Ballena National Park: rainforest meeting coast, with the ordinary life of a place that is not a stage set.
The land matters because the gathering is not abstract. Heat, rain, canopy and the work of keeping a site livable are part of the form. ARC will not romanticise that, or invent claims about the ecology on Envision’s behalf.

An ARC view
It can involve the places we gather. The systems we build. The music we make. The food we grow. The relationship we have with land. And the way we treat one another.
Around the world, different communities are working pieces of that same question in their own way. Envision is one of the places worth discovering, on its own terms.
Current public listing
As of this page’s writing, Envision publicly lists a 2026 gathering from 23 February to 2 March in Uvita, Costa Rica. Ticket windows, accommodation and programme notes change. Treat their official site as the source of truth.
