This year, to mark its contemporary twist on the age-old tradition of The Summer Solstice, Body&Soul has invited Burning Man Temple Builder Geordie Van Der Bosch to Ballinlough to design a 35-Foot Temple as a centrepiece to the festival.
By day, the temple will become a living art exhibition, as festival goers add their own affirmations to the structure or leave offerings.
It will also work as a speaker stage before turning into a dancefloor at night.
The festival takes place in Westmeath from June 19th-21st.
