NEPA Yoga Festival comes to Scranton, PA, Expected June. Froligo tracks current ticket prices, camping, attendee feedback and travel details.
What it stands for
For 2026 the festival said it goes deeper than the poses: 'devoted to the spirituality of yoga, not just the poses, but the philosophy, the lineage, the devotion, the practice beneath the practice', with a stated intention of presence over performance and a group intention of Abundance Through Connection. The FAQ carries a land acknowledgement honoring the Lenni Lenape, Susquehannock and Delaware Peoples, and asks attendees to follow a No MOOP, pack-in pack-out leave-no-trace ethic
The experience
What's special
A summer weekend yoga festival that takes over Montage Mountain's waterpark near Scranton, with more than a hundred hour-long sessions spread across seven outdoor class areas, from a wave pool deck to a mountaintop meditation area. Alongside vinyasa, Ashtanga, yin and yoga nidra classes run kirtan camps, sound baths, Thai massage, reiki, acro yoga, an indoor Holistic Expo of vendors and talks, and a kids area by the lazy river. Festival tickets include full waterpark access, and tent camping on the bunny slope comes with weekend passes. The 2026 edition's theme was The Spirituality of Yoga, weaving yoga philosophy lectures, the Bhagavad Gita and the Yoga Sutras into the schedule
The practice
all levels. The festival's own class tags are 'No experience needed', 'All Levels welcome' and 'Some experience required', and the FAQ welcomes beginners: 'We love beginners! Try our meditation zone or gentle/all-level classes. Instructors are here to help you modify poses.'
Flowing sequences that link breath to movement. Expect to move and sweat.
A set sequence practiced with breath, gaze and posture working together. Disciplined and physical.
Long, passive floor holds that reach deep tissue. Slow, quiet and meditative.
Slower, foundational postures held breath by breath. The classic starting point.
Guided lying-down meditation on the edge of sleep. No movement at all.
