A quiet corner designed to help you slow down and switch off from the festival rush. The Oasis hosts gentle, mindful creative workshops where you can try easy techniques to ease stress, relax your mind and create a little calm for yourself.

Discover what’s on offer below.

Your Host

Briony May Williams

After years of baking at home and cultivating her creativity and skill, Briony first came to the public’s attention as she launched onto our screens during nine stressful weeks in the tent on the 2018 series of The Great British Bake Off on Channel 4.

Progressing through the competition to the semi-final, Briony’s humour and warmth, coupled with her resilience and ingenuity saw her become a firm favourite with the audience.

Light Up Your Own Candle

X

Discover the art of candle making in this hands on, hour long workshop. You'll learn what makes a good candle (and what to avoid) before getting stuck into blending your own fragrance oils. Create a candle in a tin plus a wax melt cake to take home, all made with 100% pure soy wax and premium scents. Whether you're a complete beginner or already candle obsessed, it's a relaxing, fragrant escape from the festival buzz and a lovely keepsake to remember your weekend by.

Think you can’t Paint?

X

Join Penny at SpaFest for a beautifully freeing art experience designed for everyone, no skills, no pressure, no rules. Using her unique dual handed painting technique, you’ll be guided through an intuitive process that helps unlock creativity, build confidence and reconnect with your inner self.

There’s no image to copy and no expectation to be “good”, just the joy of creating in the moment. Watch as colours, movement and instinct come together on canvas, resulting in a piece that’s entirely your own.

Whether you’re looking to unwind, try something new or simply carve out a mindful moment during the festival, this is your chance to let go and explore.

Open all weekend, so book ahead to secure your spot or drop in when creativity calls.
