Testimonials

Kiara Ra - Musician

The organizers went above and beyond to ensure the artists, vendors, volunteers, and guests were attended to with considerate care. They sustained (and continue to sustain) a high level of professionalism with integrity, consistency in executing events / offerings in alignment with their values, and create containers that are inclusive, nourishing, and fun. The medicine, art, and music in synergy with the knowledge, wisdom, and experience of the organizers and event facilitators makes for revolutionary experiences that will undoubtedly only continue to expand in a positive, effective, and healthy manner for all involved. 

Sarina Selig - Vendor

As a small business owner of Shakti Clover Creations, I felt so welcomed and supported by CVC to vend at their event- Lumina. I was welcomed with open arms when I inquired about vending, and literally welcomed with open arms on the day of the event. I felt valued and appreciated with my offerings, and even for my presence being in the space. I had the most fun Lumina compared to any other event that I attended in 2024. I also met many new friends that evening, and reacquainted with so many friends and beautiful souls. The event space was so welcoming and a safe space for all, on all levels. I truly felt at home at this event, and would attend as either a vendor or an attendee at any CVC event again in a heartbeat!

Natalie Parsons - Attendee

I love attending any Coastal Vibe event! Connecting to a community of like-minded humans is incredibly supportive, especially since the last few years have been personally challenging.  I typically show up to the event alone, and never feel alone when I’m in that space. There are so many incredible humans to connect to. These interactions elevate my spirits.  These events are contributing to my physical, mental and emotional well-being.  They have become a part of my wellness and self care. Love love love Coastal Vibe Collective, they are truly a unique space in our community. 

Nithin Nedumparambil - Performer

I'm a computer science student from Dalhousie university. I worked with CVC as a member of Breaking Circus and performed at a CVC organized sober rave. The first benefit I got from the event was getting the opportunity to hear electronic music from various artists since I do enjoy that music quite a bit. I also appreciated the merge of contemporary circus into the event since  raves usually don't have circus in them, this allowed me to see and perform circus in a different setting than usual. I appreciated that various forms of art were present at the event from painting, circus, music etc. Again a rave isn't a place where you usually see these art forms. I don't take substances in any form so I appreciated that this event made raves accessible for someone like me. Finally, the event felt extremely inclusive and had an energy of physical and mental progress.
