When people travel, they flirt with the unknown. These are new territories, and our curious minds are thirsty for new knowledge, new experiences, new ways of understanding ourselves and the world around us. What we know evolves as we fully engage with the conscious festival experience; an experience that involves learning in many different forms […]

Finding rhythm, mirroring the sounds of nature and making music, seemed to be a fundamental human need; a balancing act for the soul. The first ever musical instrument – a flute made from bones – dates 40,000 years. The first ever dance cannot be documented in the same way, but one thing is for sure: […]
We sincerely feel with all the pain caused by the innocently murdered victims around the world. We reject and condemn any murder, oppression, arms trafficking, the incitement of tensions between the countries and people. In the Solar United Natives community we are all equal. We are all children of the Sun! We plant trees… Our […]

Travelogue article by Elisavet T. 2015 was my second year on Csobankapuszta land. And a year that I will reminisce with great pleasure and great admiration. I didn’t stay just for the festival, I arrived a few days before and I stayed for a few days after. My intention was clear: I had made links with […]

With 3 times more people than last year we will be able to build a better infrastructure, organize more programs, and pay at least a minimal salary to some of our people. It’s still a small initiative, what needs to be treated wisely to grow stronger. Because of the limitation of visitors, we can calculate with exact numbers. […]
Turning point in the S.U.N. story It was the first year that a non-profit foundation managed the summer event. The visitors number was limited to 1 thousand people. Many of the promoted artists and program elements were cancelled to escape the disaster. In the hard situation the production company pulled out, and only a handful of people remained […]
In the dark and cold winter weather it’s so good to remember bright summer memories… Please welcome this short film made out of your video footage that you have sent to us. Looking forward to a very exciting year, where the SUN will rise again :) S.U.N. 2015 from Solar United Natives on Vimeo. Much […]
Our gathering will be the first one in Hungary that is only using bio-degradable cups, dishes and cutlery produced from lactic-acid. These food and drink packaging will be collected and composted on the spot, providing valuable soil for the garden by the next year. Our supporting partners are Vegware Ltd., the Polymer Departments of the […]
It was a great outdoor event, planted by the Solar United Natives in cooperation with the TesseracTstudio trance-botanic gardeners, held in a beautiful location in Serbia. We were all too busy enjoying the music and the great atmosphere, so dont’t have too many pics of the event. These few photos were taken by Jan and the main one by Boom Shankar […]
In times past, people were gathering around the fire, and this is not much different today: we do the same in the kitchen. We started to develop the summer kitchen from simple, renewable and natural materials found in the area. The establishment is based on Master Oszi’s experience and ours, being able to prepare the […]
Our community garden is ready, featuring a variety of herbs, salad greens, fruits, berries. It is built next to the community kitchen, so if some fresh ingredients are needed, the chef doesn’t have to go too far. All the plants need now is a bit of water and tender loving care. In another spot a small area got fenced […]
True to the announcement promising nature, culture, gastronomy and music over a weekend, you indeed got a bit of them all. The weather was overcast, nevertheless it was pleasant to explore the surroundings of Csobánkapuszta a little bit. A performance by the Ébrenálmodók Rituális SzÃnház (Daydreamers’ Ritual Theatre) and music filled the night, and, although a bit hazily, finally the full […]

Volunteers who will actively take part in […]
As our community is growing, what we dreamed about is coming more and more alive. Some of the ideas are already showing their effect, yet some of them are still in progress to be as good as they should be. We would like to give a short summary of the concept: The programs and gatherings will be […]
Today we celebrate overcoming the last legal obstacle, that was ahead our foundation in order to start the realization of the new community project idea, that is quite different from last years’ festival concepts. Only a handful of the previous team members have remained. This project is an initiative to save the original, noble idea once called […]
Dear Solar United Natives! Thank you for your trust and patience towards us in the last months. Here is a Mushroom Magazine interview with Oleg to give you more insight into the background of the changes in our approach and team that ultimately led us focus on the community, on You. It seems like tomorrow […]
Photos taken at our Spring Feast, marking the spring equinox, on the beautiful surroundings of Csobánkapuszta, the location of the Solar United Natives (S.U.N.) gatherings.

Photos of our land in Csobánkapuszta and the surroundings, taken at various times in 2015 and 2014. It’s a secluded lush basin with a little lake and surrounded by forests, set among rolling hills offering great views. Can you imagine a more ideal place for a festival? See all photos on: flickr.com
Benefits of a member-based system: members can vote on the community’s progress, regional land development, different programs, artists, installations. members can decide about what the majority of their donations (members fee) should be used for. members have the opportunity to see the financial management: what their money was spent on (“glass-pocket”) members of the community […]
We have a beautiful open kitchen with a wood-fired oven on site in Csobánkapuszta, the location of the Solar United natives (S.U.N.). Our chef is Oszi, who changed the kitchens of high-end hotels for these more natural surroundings. A master of making breads, he also makes great pizzas and all types of dishes. Maybe not […]

February 22 is “Saint Peter’s day” in the Hungarian folk tradition, when a one-day break must be taken to celebrate the end of Winter. As one of the first events the team has spent this day in Csobánkapuszta, to collect plastic rubbish in the hidden areas of the bushes before the plants turn into green […]
Known for the the S.U.N. Festivals, held in 2013 and 2014, we carry on with the tradition in Csobánkapuszta in 2015, while at the same time are building a community of New Consciousness. We want to live in harmony with Nature, and so we manage our land according sustainable, eco-friendly principles. Here you can find a few shots of how we make it […]
There will be more happenings throughout the year, not just a single gathering. The ancient tribes and native people adjusted their calendar to lunar and solar cycles, including natural observations and traditional community events. We would like to return to this ‘old-fashioned’ practice and celebrate the significant dates together – as well as living, learning, […]
A few beautiful shots of the end of winter on Csobánkapuszta, the magical land in North Hungary, home to the Solar United Natives (S.U.N.). Winter is beautiful, although it can get a bit cold, but we’re surly looking forward to spring and the Summer Gathering in July. See more photos on: flickr.com
