WHAT IS PURE PLAY FEST?

An outdoor field day

built for adults.

Pure Play Fest is a one-day outdoor experience rooted in the childhood games and community traditions of the diaspora. Think relay races, tug of war, soccer, water balloons, live music, good food, and the kind of laughter you forgot you were capable of.

We believe movement is medicine and joy is a form of wellness. This is not a workout. It's not a concert. It's a field day, for the grown version of the kid who never wanted to go inside.

Sometimes wellness looks like tug of war on a sunny Saturday.
