A Celebration by the sea! ONE DAY · ONE BEACH · ONE COMMUNITY

Main Basketball Court at Muscle BeachVenice, CA

Monday, October 26 • 12 PM - 7:30 PM

The Venice Yoga Festival & Block Party is a free, family-friendly community celebration bringing together yoga, wellness, music, art, culture, and local businesses in the heart of Venice. The festival features yoga and wellness sessions, live music and kirtan, workshops and talks, and a community bazaar showcasing local vendors and artisans.

At the heart of the festival is a larger mission: to help bring life back to the Venice Recreation Center and Boardwalk and make this iconic part of Venice a vibrant, welcoming and family-friendly gathering place again. With the City investing in the area, including a new children's play space, we hope to contribute by bringing families, artists, musicians and the community back together — while preserving the creativity and character that make Venice unique.
