Healing Arts & Music Festival's next dates haven't been announced yet. The last festival was 2 to 3 October 2026 in Abingdon, MD. Froligo tracks current ticket prices, attendee feedback and travel details.
What it stands for
The festival's own line is Find Your Rhythm, and it describes itself as celebrating healing, arts and music through community and as blending music, visual art and what it calls accessible wellness experiences in a relaxed, welcoming environment. It says its intention is to keep offerings accessible and beginner friendly while providing depth for people with an existing practice, and it invites guests to take part in as much or as little as feels aligned to them. Those are the organizer's descriptions of the festival's character and are quoted as such
The experience
What's special
A two day outdoor festival at Friendship Park in Abingdon, Maryland, that puts a full music bill and a full wellness schedule side by side. Friday evening is a single four hour music session: a songwriter circle hosted by Will Sims, then three sets closing with Cat Bone & The Charm City Sinners. Saturday starts before the gates with two hours of yoga in kids and adult blocks, then opens at noon for nine hours of music across eight acts, four timed wellness experiences, five workshops and two kids art workshops, all on open park ground with art installations and a vendor village
The practice
accessible and beginner friendly. The FAQ says the intention is to offer accessible, beginner friendly experiences while also providing depth for those with an existing wellness or creative practice, and that guests may take part in as much or as little as feels aligned. Yoga is split into kids and adult blocks; no individual session carries a level label and no lineage is named for any yoga class

What it costs
What to bring
A full weekend of practice is easier with your own kit. What earns its place in the bag:
