Sound
Ancient metal, breath, silence and vibration become a bridge between body, heart and the living earth.
A collective of gong players from different countries, backgrounds and experiences, united by one passion: celebrating the pure joy of life through sound, silence and love.
Diversity is our strength. Unity is our power.
At Ozora Festival 2026, the Gong Orchestra opens two complementary spaces: an intimate Gong Temple in the Healion Garden and a large ceremonial concert on the Ozora Stage. One invites participants to rest, receive and go deep. The other gathers the whole field into a shared moment of grounding and collective resonance.
Ancient metal, breath, silence and vibration become a bridge between body, heart and the living earth.
Every session is offered as a gentle invitation to soften, reconnect and remember the simple joy of being alive.
Players, listeners, helpers, artists and dreamers form one circle: diverse in stories, united in intention.
Get ready for a sacred moment of silence and grounding. In the heart of the festival, we step out of the noise and let ancient vibrations flow through us, connecting every soul, every heart and Mother Earth.
For deeper experiences, individual sound sessions and different talks, be part of our journey in the Healion Garden. In our sacred space we welcome each and every one of you to step inside, let go and listen.
The Gong Temple is a soft landing place inside the festival: a tent for sound journeys, gong baths, meditative concerts, integration, silence, conversation and rest.
The highlight will be a full night gong puja on 31 July: an extended overnight immersion held by the crew as a continuous prayer of sound.
