Laitse Graniitvilla

Dear friends and members of the dance community!

✨We are waiting for you at the New Year’s Dance Festival from December 31 – January 2 at Laitse Graniitvilla! ✨
We will come together to bid farewell to this transformative year through dance and rhythm, with dignity and in a grand way. We will celebrate from the heart and make space for the new: for stories not yet told and dances not yet danced. Together we will welcome the year 2026, where presence becomes sacred, where we consciously place ourselves first in our own lives, and where clarity and vision begin to materialize with increasing precision.

And friends – welcoming this new cycle with you is our greatest heart’s wish ❤️ Because together we create this space! Everyone’s presence, contribution and being is truly precious.

Organizers reserve the right to make schedule changes!

The festival program is full of dance (lots of it!), saunas, shared workshops, tea and cacao enjoyment, the best taste experiences, and of course new encounters and reunions with old friends.

On the eve of New Year’s, there will be a deep and long 3-hour ecstatic dance journey with various live artists and several DJs – a newly structured and unique dance experience unlike anything done before. At the same time, we remain traditionally alcohol-free, phone-free and talk-free on the dance floor to feel our bodies and rhythms freely.

At the festival, you can take part in sauna ceremonies and also simply enjoy the heat. There will also be a beautiful tea space held by Jaanus Leplaan Chadost, offering a place to land and attune more deeply throughout the day.

BUT not only that. In Laitse, we create a space where at the very heart of it is you – your people, friends, family and companions. A space where the sweetest are perhaps exactly those “moments between the moments.” Because that is where magic and true lasting connection are born, the kind that carries us into the new year and gives us wings.

📍 The event takes place at the magical Laitse Graniitvilla, where art, nature and unique spaces intertwine.
In the villa it is possible to stay overnight either in rooms (purchase a full package) or in the large hall with your own mattress (free).

Invite friends to the event already now, because together is simply the best.

Tickets are non-refundable, but can be gifted or transferred to friends! Surprise someone with an experience that creates memories! ❤️

You are warmly welcome!
