Origin is a full weekend of conscious partying as the techno-shamanic tribes from the cities, towns, fields and forests gather in a valley of breathtaking natural beauty to celebrate life and togetherness.
As one of Africa’s brightest shining lights for psychedelic music, art, and culture, Origin strives to promote Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect for all, as we strengthen our own global community based on conscious party ethics and respect for nature.
All communities are important to us and as such we are privileged to be able to offer a percentage of our profits every year to development projects under the guidance of the local municipality.
3500 is the sweet spot! We will continue to limit our ticket sales to 3500 tickets only (40% less than pre-pandemic times). Over the last few years we have found that limiting tickets has helped to keep Origin Festival focussed on quality over quantity, with a bespoke experience for the committed fans of psychedelic art, music and culture creating an amazingly relaxed event for all.
For Origin 2025, to show our continued appreciation for your loyal support we are also going to increase the number of Early Bird and Phase 1 tickets available to make this as affordable as we can, while maintaining the same production quality you have become accustomed to. We do urge you to buy as soon as possible which will save you some cash and also help us to create the best possible experience for all.
There are No farm cottages / farm accommodation available to rent, please do not call the farm to enquire about this. The festival uses all farm accommodation.

In 2024 we debuted our new dance-floor canopy designed especially for Origin by Artescape Decor. Join us as our Temple of Colour continues to grow and welcome you into its kaleidoscopic womb.
As ever our lineup promises to host some of the best musical talent South Africa has to offer, plus major International Headliners too. Our lineup curators have once again put together a journey that will carefully flow through the weekend.
Opening Friday afternoon with Yoga and an Opening Ceremony to set our collective intentions, the weekend then gets kick-started and lasts all night till sunrise. After a short break, dubby beats roll through Saturday morning and lunch time, before diving back in again for Saturday night and all day Sunday with more blasting psychedelic beats.

Musical Curation by Nano Records
Aptly named, The Beats Floor has become a key feature of Origin, with its carefully curated artists and amazingly quirky decor. Positioned in the most idyllic location for a dance-floor, amongst the trees alongside the beautifully fresh mountain water of the Elandskloof river, the lush riverside lawn calls out for all you sun-seeking denizens. Warm Melodic Techno and Organic Deep House weaves into an ecstatic eruption of good vibes to keep the dancers and mermaids spinning!
