Your spotlight
Pyramid Festival is a transformational festival at the foot of Rtanj, the mountain shaped like a pyramid in Eastern Serbia. Five days of music, practice, art and community take place at Pyramid Eco Village in Ilino, with the 2027 festival running 1 to 4 July and the camp opening on 30 June.
A gathering at the foot of Rtanj
In the festival’s own words, Pyramid is a small, community run festival where people come to dance, practice, make things and look after the place together. Many come on their own the first time, and everyone is welcome as they are. There are no stars and no VIPs.
Rtanj rises to 1565 m at Šiljak, its nearly perfect triangle visible from across Eastern Serbia. Legends, a ruined chapel on the summit, Rtanj tea and sunrise hikes are part of the mountain the festival lives beneath.
ROD, the 2027 edition
The fourth edition is called ROD, a Serbian word for kin, lineage and harvest. In old Slavic symbolism, rod stands for origin, birth, fertility, ancestors and community. The festival describes how Pyramid grew from an idea to a community, from a few people to thousands of encounters, and ROD as the moment creation begins again.
Healing Days and the Healing Zone
Healing Days open every morning on the VRELO stage, with breathwork, meditation, yoga and sound, and VRELO ends each day with ecstatic sessions. All Healing Days workshops are held in English and come with the Festival Pass.
The Healing Zone is a quiet corner of the village under the trees, a few steps from the dance floors, where practitioners offer one on one and small group sessions all day: massage and bodywork, Reiki and energy work, sound healing, breath sessions and readings. These sessions are booked and paid directly with each practitioner.
Music, workshops, art and family
Three stages each carry their own mood. KOLO is the psytrance heart of the festival, TOK plays psytech, acid and groove, and VRELO is live music and open jams. The Workshop Zone offers hands on workshops in clay, natural materials, drawing, medicinal plants and eco skills, the Art Zone fills the valley with installations and live painting, and the Kids Garden runs painting, clay, weaving, herbs, stories and kids yoga. Children under 12 enter free with an adult Festival Pass.
Camping and Pyramid Eco Village
Camping in your own tent, water, showers and the community kitchen come with the Festival Pass, and rented tents and tipis are available as add ons. Pyramid Eco Village, the festival’s home, is an eco camp under Rtanj that is open all year, with seasonal retreats and gatherings, meditation, mindfulness and embodied healing, eco workshops, cacao ceremonies and fire gatherings.
