Thank you for being part of this journey — not just as a guest, but as a co-creator. These events are more than parties. They’re living rituals, woven from collective care, creativity, and courageous connection. We’re building something rare and real here — and we’re so glad to be doing it with you.
The Economics of Pleasure
As our community and events have evolved, we’ve witnessed the profound magic that unfolds when this we gather. With each experience, the depth, quality, and demand have grown. To continue nurturing this unique world — and to honour the labor, love, and vision behind it — our ticket prices have gradually increased since we began in 2019.
We understand that the cost may feel high for some — and we want to be transparent, grounded, and clear about why. Our intention has never been to exclude, but to reflect the true value of what’s being co-created. There are many ways to be part of this, regardless of financial status. Co-creation is at the heart of our community — not just because it makes the space more accessible, but because it weaves a deeper sense of belonging, ownership and something ancient. Throughout history, it has been through collective effort that communities have survived, celebrated, and evolved. When we come together — offering our hands, hearts, and imagination — we tap into a deeper intelligence that no single person holds alone. It is in this shared space that new magic, unexpected solutions, and liberating possibilities emerge. This is how we build not just events, but new worlds.
How Your Contribution Makes a Difference
Each event requires a team of at least 12 core crew members — including hosts, facilitators, DJs, chefs, performance artists, photographers, carebears, and production support. For example a villa event takes ~6 hours in planning, the event day involves a 15-hour shift, and there’s ~6 hours of follow-up work.
On top of that, there are material costs: decor, lighting, buckets of coconut oil, sound, food, beverages, other venue rental, and facilitator fees. We also invest in fair wages because we believe this kind of care and labor deserves to be sustainable — not extractive or only volunteer-based.
Beyond what happens on the surface, your ticket also supports the invisible work that holds this community together. This includes:
- training and preparing our Carebears to support emotional regulation and consent during events
- engaging in ongoing transformative justice and accountability work — both preventive and responsive
- dedicating time to conflict resolution and emotional processing after events.
- It also sustains the behind-the-scenes infrastructure that supports community well-being and inclusion.
In addition, we continuously invest in strengthening our team and how we work together — improving internal systems, marketing, and platforms to better organize and grow. Many of us regularly attend workshops on communication, pedagogy, systems of oppression, trauma-awareness, and community care, all to become better facilitators and space holders, and to show up in these gatherings with deeper skill, integrity, and heart.
These systems of care are what make our spaces feel different — and they require time, training, and long-term dedication.
Our Spaces and the Villa
While not all events take place at the Villa, it remains a core part of our ecosystem — a space built specifically to host transformational gatherings. Sofia purchased the house with the intention of devoting it fully to community use. Monthly costs (approx. 30K NOK) and significant investments (over 350K NOK) have gone into transforming it into a home for shared liberation — with sensory rooms, a dungeon, and immersive environments. We’ve also reinvested profits into building community infrastructure that enhances the experience for everyone — including a sauna (100K NOK), an outdoor bathtub (15K NOK), and a 12-person dormitory (25K NOK). Looking ahead, we’re dreaming even bigger, with plans for a Japanese-style swimming pool (200K NOK) and a glass dome under the stars (500K NOK), all designed to support deeper connection, rest, and transformation.
These projects aren’t about personal luxury — they’re about building lasting, dedicated spaces where people can gather, rest, heal, and expand.
Accessibility and Shared Contribution
We believe that liberation shouldn’t be limited by income. That’s why we offer support options for those who need them — and why we never want money to be a barrier to participation. If you’re low on funds, you’re always welcome to DM us — we’ll do our best to accommodate with care and without shame.
There are also many other ways to contribute beyond buying a ticket. You can apply for a helper role, assist with setup or takedown, share a creative gift or a passion, or offer support in other forms. This community thrives on co-creation — and your presence, skills, and energy are just as valuable as financial contributions.
