„Manas” in Sanskrit: mind.
In Indian philosophy, it is the layer of consciousness that receives the impressions of our senses, organizes them, and prepares them for the waking mind.
The mission of the Manas Festival is to help bridge the gap between peak experiences and everyday life.
We do not simply offer experiences – we create space for integration, for genuine embodiment, so that insights do not remain fleeting moments, but mature into lasting inner transformation.

This year, everyone who registers gets in!
Compared with last year, there has been a major change in the way the integration programs are organized. Some program locations are freely accessible, while certain programs require advance registration.
The biggest novelty this year is that we can now guarantee that everyone who registers for a program will be admitted. Programs that require registration can still be joined without prior registration, but only if free spots remain. So if you want to be sure of your place on a chosen program, it is worth registering in advance.
In every program description, we clearly indicate whether registration is required for guaranteed participation.
How registration works?
Registration is available only on the festival grounds via the KIOSK terminals placed at the Registration Desk, 24/7.
On the KIOSK screens, you will find the same program tables you already know from the website, now extended with the registration option.
Guests arriving later can still register for programs:
For some programmes, the number of participants is limited. If a programme is already full, the label “FULLY BOOKED” will appear in place of the registration option during sign-up.
