Why We Created Florida Bohemian Fest (And What It Means to Us)

There’s a reason Florida Bohemian Fest isn’t just another festival on your feed.

We didn’t create this event just to fill rows and rows of random vendors. We created it because we needed it. Because our community needed it. Because the world needs spaces where healing, art, movement, and soulful connection are the whole point, not the side dish.

🌿 From Idea to Energy

I’m Dana—founder, mama, content creator, social media strategist, and wellness event organizer. And this whole vision started with a craving.


A craving for connection. For something that blended holistic healing, spirituality, play, creativity, movement, and community in a way that didn’t feel corporate or inaccessible.

What would happen if we brought together the most magical and creative humans in St. Augustine for one day?”

Spoiler Alert: magic happened.

Why it matters more than ever…

-Your Healing Journey can Feel Lonely. Wherever you are in your healing journey, you are welcome here. Even if you’re just starting to learn about holistic healing or the power of manifesting. Even if you’ve never done Yoga before, you are welcome here. Or even if you’ve been doing yoga and healing work for years, you are welcome here.

-The Biggest Complaint I hear in St. Augustine… is that there are NOT a lot of Spiritual people here. And I’ve been saying for years, “Yes, there is. We are just all spread out and unorganized.” Haha!

-It’s Time to Come Together. We are more powerful together. We are more powerful with community and connections. This is one of the most fun ways to Network (in my opinion) because it doesn’t involve forced small talk and mimosa’s with people you don’t know. It’s an organic and natural way to build a strong Network for you personally and your business.

-Accessibility to Healing. Our tickets are low cost ($15 early bird & $20 at the gate). You can’t even take ONE yoga class for that price anymore, let alone a whole day of different types of yoga, workshops and talks with local healers.

-Exploration of New Healing Modalities. Maybe you’ve been interested in learning more about Herbal Healing, Yoga, Acupuncture, Massage, Reiki, or Sound Healing. If you were to go around and explore each of these individually it would cost you a lot more and take a lot longer. This is a Florida Wellness event that allows you to EXPLORE all of it in one day and with all of your friends!

-It’s time to get outside and talk to each other. We all know that Covid has had long term effects. But, Communication and Community is a healing force that ripples out to the rest of the world! IT STARTS WITH US. Get to know your neighbor. Get to know your farmers, your mail men and women, your bag boy at Publix! Start conversation. Care about each other.

💗 What It Means to Us (And What It Could Mean for You)

This festival is a love letter to:

  • The healers and artists who don’t always have a stage

  • The women looking for aligned community and conscious, sober fun

  • The families seeking something meaningful and magical to do together

  • Anyone ready to be seen, celebrated, and supported

Florida Bohemian Fest is about remembering who you are, feeling connected to something bigger than yourself, and letting that version of you dance barefoot under the sky.
