5. Yoga Open Air 2026

"We celebrate, throw our arms in the air, sing and laugh from the bottom of our hearts. We become still, find peace on the yoga mat at the beach, and let the gentle sounds of the sea guide us to our innermost selves. We hold hands, smile at each other, and embrace each other lovingly. All of this we experience at the Yoga OpenAir at the South Beach in Eckernförde."

At the Yoga OpenAir, we create a space where people come together and meet in their authenticity and joy. With the yoga festival, we bring the spirit of the desert to the South Beach of Eckernförde. The beautiful location on the sandy beach of the Baltic Sea and the vastness of the sea provide a special setting for the festival. Yoga on the beach in connection with the Baltic Sea allows the inner flow of energy to circulate. The Yoga Open Air Festival attracts more than 1,200 visitors from both near and far each year and is characterized by its personal and familial atmosphere.

The festival opens on Thursday at 1:30 PM. You can arrive starting at 10:00 AM to settle in or head straight to the beach and jump into the sea. Until Sunday at 4 PM, there will be nearly 80 yoga sessions and workshops, as well as three evening concerts. In four large tents, four events will take place simultaneously each day; three of the four tents are equipped with solid flooring and can be completely closed in case of rain and wind. The program consists of yoga sessions of all styles, cacao ceremonies, ecstatic dance, meditations, and kirtan singing, offering a wide range for both beginners and advanced practitioners.
