Festival of
Dreams 2025
A Celebration of the Power of Dreams
The Festival of Dreams is a regional event in collaboration with the International Association for the Study of Dreams, bringing together dream enthusiasts, researchers, artists, and the curious to explore the mystery and magic of dreaming.
Our festival is more than just an event, it’s a movement to inspire and ignite a deeper connection to dreams, creativity, and community. Through workshops, speaker panels, film screenings, art exhibitions, and our one-of-a-kind Dream Ball, we create a space for dreamers of all backgrounds to come together in a city known for its creativity and beauty, Santa Cruz, CA.
