Rainbow Gatherings are temporary, self-organized communities where people come together in nature to share food, music, conversation, practical work and simple daily life. They usually have no tickets, no commercial program and no central organizer. Participation is based on cooperation, respect and voluntary contribution. People help with cooking, water, firewood, cleaning, circles and the final restoration of the place. For travellers, a Rainbow Gathering can be a way to experience community living outside conventional tourism, but it also requires responsibility. Before joining, it is important to check updated local information, arrive prepared for basic outdoor conditions and take part with care for the land, nearby communities and other people.
