Save the date! The 2018 Spring Labyrinth Festival, will be held in Centennial Park from 11am-4pm on Sunday 23rd September. We’re thrilled to announce that this year’s event will be sponsored by the Vasudhara Foundation. Celebrating the labyrinth as a path of peace, there will be several different labyrinths painted onto the field beside the sandstone one and facilitated walks accompanied by acoustic music: frame drum, didgeridoo, djembe drum, crystal bowl and harp. Share a picnic with your friends. This is a free event – all welcome! Come and experience the labyrinth: ancient wisdom and a new way of being.
There will be a Triple Spiral, an Archimedes Spiral and a Chalice of Love labyrinth painted onto the field, as well as a Pilgrim Riverstone Labyrinth in which walkers can select a river stone near the threshold and walk it into the labyrinth, leaving their worries behind by placing the stone somewhere along the painted path. So the Pilgrim Labyrinth will emerge slowly over the day as one by one, each pilgrim lays their burden down.

Hi Val
The labyrinth is on Dickens Drive opposite the Education Centre. You can ask the taxi to drive you in. It is clearly sign posted within the park. Look on the location page for more precise directions. Enjoy your walk! Best wishes
