It’s paradise for healthistas – four days of inspirational workshops, live demonstrations and over 150 health, fitness and wellbeing exhibitors bringing you the latest news, products and treatments to make you look and feel better, all under one roof. It’s happening from May 1-4 at London’s Olympia as The London Wellbeing Festival (aka The Mind Body and Spirit Festival) gets under way. As the biggest wellness festival in the UK, it’s bound to provide not only an education in the latest thinking in wellness but also tonnes of fun with dancing, music, treatments, cooking demos and yoga workshops.

The festival is all about real-time shared experiences and sensory indulgences. In the Wellbeing Studio you can see an eclectic mix of teachers from the world of yoga, tai chi, dance and meditation. In the Mantra Lounge you can learn to relax and energise with live treatments and at one of the 36 workshops you can hear from experts on the leading edge in areas of relationships, yoga, meditation, nutrition, and meditation.
Then there’s the exhibitor marketplace where you can discover the best health therapists, treatments and products (we’ll have a stand too, so come see us) including new books, organic beauty products, yoga supplies, healthy treats and much more.
Who will be there?
