YOU ARE INVITED to participate in the Earthdance Worldwide Synchronized Peace Prayer – a four minute dance for peace held simultaneously at events around the globe and also live broadcast on YouTube so that folks at home can participate alone or in small groups, dinner parties and small gatherings wherever YOU are.

The Prayer for Peace is an incredible experience of global unity – to be in a prayer for peace, with an entire attendance at a festival and at the same time word for word in unison with festivals around the globe is nothing short of extraordinary and I urge you to join in. The feeling if connection is indescribable.

LIVE BROADCAST LINK HERE, but will not be live until the time of the prayer.

The Earthdance Story

Founded in 1996, Earthdance – The Global Festival for Peace has grown to become the world’s largest simultaneous dance music event. The Earthdance mission is to promote peace by joining participants worldwide in a synchronized Prayer For Peace and to support humanitarian causes through the global language of music and dance.
 
The highlight of the Earthdance is when every event across the world plays the 4-minute Prayer for Peace track. Morning in the Australian rainforest, midnight in London, and sunrise over the Himalayas, the Prayer for Peace is a profound and powerful moment that unifies our intentions for World peace and healing. Each year Earthdance has continued to attract new participating cities, each self-funded and fueled by grassroots enthusiasm.
