The Bliss Boogie Festival returns for its second year, bringing an expanded lineup of transformative experiences to Lakeside Retreats in Raleigh, North Carolina, May 29 through June 1. Building on its inaugural success, the 2025 festival will feature an array of presenters, immersive workshops, live music and community gatherings designed to foster connection, personal growth and well-being.

As conversations around mental well-being, movement and community-building continue to gain momentum, Bliss Boogie Festival intends to provide a timely space for individuals to recharge, connect and celebrate. “At Bliss Boogie, we believe in the transformational power of music, movement and community,” says festival founder Kai Baylis. “Year two brings even more opportunities for attendees to explore, connect and grow in an environment designed for self-expression and joy.”

In 2025, the festival will feature an expanded lineup of speakers, artists and wellness experts, as well as new interactive workshops focused on movement, mindfulness and creative expression. Festival grounds will be designed to promote connection and comfort, and there will be more opportunities for sponsorship and vendor participation.
