About this event
This is not your average party.
This is not a regular club night. This is not a regular ecstatic dance. Or a conscious event with no talking. This is something unique, we invite you into a co-created space for people who want more playfulness and more freedom of just ‘being yourself’. But also with more intentionality, depth, and possibilities to connect deeper beyond small talks, in more embodied and creative ways. Gently supported by the medicine of nature - our delicious truffle microdosing mocktail tea freshly served.
Welcome to join our deeper connection movement, powered by Paradigm Xchange.
After many sold-out editions in a row, we’re opening the doors to a bigger gathering - a Day Festival.
From the afternoon of Friday, October 23, join us for the Microdosing Festival & Party Amsterdam (ADE week Special) - this time we are hosting a mini Microdosing Festival during the ADE week, including workshop, ceremony, dinner plus a night party of deeper connection and celebration!
We will make our way to the beautiful indoor + outdoor space at the Salon Ruigoord - a vibrant, conscious and sustainable community just outside of Amsterdam, with lots of nature spaces to explore nearby (including the autumn bonfire :) More about the beautiful location:

Think cozy autumn vibes, live DJ/musicians, ceremony, workshop, guided (deeper) connection exercises to break the ice, inspiring artists, creative corners to explore your senses and sensations, optional microdosing tea, and a warm setting that helps you soften, relax, and actually enjoy connecting. We also have an option for a light, healthy & yummy vegetarian dinner, prepared by local organic ingredients by our Chef with heart, before the party starts.
We are very excited to be able to gather a lovely team of amazing artists to join us:

WHAT THIS DAY & EVENING IS ABOUT ✨
At the heart of this event is authentic human connection.
Because so many social spaces feel the same. Fast. Loud. Random. Disconnected. Or overly curated in a way that makes everyone self-conscious.
We’re interested in something else:
A room with intention and possibilities, but without pressure or ‘have-to-do'.
A social experience that helps people relax enough to actually meet each other.
A space that feels playful, present, a bit more magical, and still very grounded.
Just a different kind of space - one where it becomes easier to arrive as you are, drop some of the social armor and masks, and meet others with more openness, curiosity, and ease. Where you can receive deep rest and nourishment for yourself.
You might discover new ways to connect - e.g. gazing, dancing and making arts together, cuddle.. You may meet a new friend, a collaborator, someone unexpected, or simply have one of those rare nights that reminds you how good it feels to be around open-hearted people.
The feeling of being part of something warm, alive, and more meaningful than your average night out. Something more REAL and bigger - becoming a part of a community.

💃 HOW THIS EVENING MAY UNFOLD
14:00- 17.00 — Opening with a Ceremony & Workshop (optional)
An ancient (Damiana) Tea Ceremony followed by a 'Embodied Connection & Conscious Touch' Workshop to help you connect deeper within, and land to the space smoothly.
17:00 — Early Dinner (optional)
If you have purchased the extra dinner ticket - we recommend that :)
Our Thai-inspired dinner is specially prepared with heart by our Chef with local, organic and vegetarian ingredients with a starter/soup and a main dish.
18:00 — Party Arrival
You enter the space, settle in, tune into your intention for the night before receiving the first free drink at the bar, and start landing into the space.
18:45 — Party Opening
We gather together to set the tone, agreements and container for the evening and make the space feel more safe, coherent and well-held from the start.
19:15 — Guided connection experience
A light but intentional opening with playful and embodied social invitations to help you break the ice, soften nervousness, and make meeting people feel easier, but deeper.
From 20:00 onwards — Free-flow party
The evening opens up. Move between music, conversations, playful experiences, cozy corners, creative artists, connection spaces, and the little unexpected moments in between.
Before 23:30 — Closing Ceremony
We complete the evening together with coming back to yourself, presence and perhaps gratitude, before heading back into the city. We will share some words for aftercare/integration as well.
🍹 ABOUT THE MICRODOSING TEA
Microdosing is completely optional. At the bar, you’ll be able to choose between a microdosing truffle tea and a non-microdosing alternative. The microdose is gentle and intended to support: relaxation, openness, presence, social ease, focus, a deeper enjoyment of sensory experience...
For most people, it does not create a full psychedelic trip. You remain functional, aware, present, and in choice. You can feel free to bike or drive after the party ends.

💫 WHAT PAST PARTICIPANTS SAY?
"As usual, a beautiful experience of expression in a safe and welcoming environment. Leila and Lya's energy are absolutely amazing and it's always an absolute pleasure to share the space with them." - Oliver
"Definitely exceeded my expectations, was outside my comfort zone but the team and attendees made it comfortable and exciting! I also gained some personal insights to reflect on, looking forward to going again!" - Kasim
“The days since triggered a massive spiral of growth and a deep dive into my own psyche. Coming out the other side, I have a much clearer understanding of my internal workings. Habits that defined my identity for decades are starting to fall away, though not always gracefully. I am grateful they kept me safe this far, but they no longer serve me. If you value genuine connection and a solid foundation for internal exploration, I highly recommend going!” - Danny
