Rooted in the underground electronic music scene, Noisily's festival family is forged in a holistic environment which feeds the mind, body and soul. Each year we gather in the woods to Dance, create, learn and connect.

Guided by our environment and grounded in nature, we celebrate the individual and cultivate understanding in the collective.

But make no mistake, this a proper f*cking party.

Multi rhythm, multi genre, 3 part harmonies, strings, plentiful percussion, and instruments you didn’t know were instruments. Joyful music from four unwieldy women.
