Reclaiming Rest, One Dream at a Time

Sleep isn’t a luxury—it’s essential. Yet, for so many people, restful sleep feels impossible. At Dream Festival, we believe there’s no single way to improve sleep. Instead, it’s about exploring, experimenting, and finding what works for you.

Born from personal experience and a passion for helping others, Dream Festival is the world’s first festival dedicated entirely to sleep—blending science, creativity, and wellness into an immersive experience. Running from 15th March 2025 to 15th April 2025, this month-long event brings together experts, artists, and wellness practitioners to create a space where people can discover real solutions to improve their sleep and well-being.

How It Started

Dream Festival was founded by Roya, whose own battle with four years of relentless insomnia led to a profound realisation: there isn’t one answer to better sleep—only the one that works for you. Her journey began with sculpting forgotten dreams from clay, reconnecting with lost memories, and slowly finding a way back to rest. Along the way, she discovered that millions of people suffer from sleep deprivation and that the conversation around sleep needed to change. That’s when Dream Festival was born—a place to explore different paths to better rest and transform the way we think about sleep.
