Feel Good Festival

Enjoy a variety of wellness workshops, inspiring talks, shopping and food

The Feel Good Festival is a celebration of joy! Bringing together the mind, body and soul within the serene gardens and grounds of Hampton Court Palace.

Through hands on workshops, guided practices, drop-in clinics with leaders in their fields - and of course food, drink and shopping - we’ll ditch the dull and help you feel the best version of yourselves.

Today, more than ever, people want to do what makes them feel good. We all need a spark of joy, a calming moment to retreat, and a new mindset to conquer life’s challenges.

So, join us for a festival of fun, relaxation and togetherness that you won't want to miss!
