Projeto Terra do Sol
We’re honoured to welcome Sara and Fred, bringing Projeto Terra do Sol to Icaros Festival 2025! In the midst of a collapsing planet, their mission is to contribute to the continuity of life.

They believe that by supporting Indigenous peoples, we are actively connecting with and embodying the many causes we stand for — such as:
Reconnection & Spirituality, Cultural Protection, Anti-colonialist Bioeconomy, Cultural Reparation, Activism, Sustainability, and Healing.

Over the past five years, Terra do Sol has hosted various native Indigenous representatives, supporting them in their journeys through the world.

Along the way, they’ve helped bring healing to some of the struggles humanity faces — by sharing ancestral traditions and returning home with resources, tools, and renewed hope for their families and villages.

They are a family — one that continues to grow with every soul who hears the call and joins the mission. Because when we heal individually, we are also healing collectively!

Nomad Steam
Ceremonial Steam Spa for Your Body and Soul.

One more amazing project will be present at Icaros Festival...Nomad Steam offers a healing steam ceremony — a ritual of purification, connection with nature, and deep restoration.

Guided by the three elements — fire, water, and air — the experience harmonizes your vital energy and invites complete mental and physical renewal.

Our experienced team of Nomad Steam will guide you through an unforgettable journey with steam — introducing you to an ancient cleansing ritual passed down from our ancestors.

This is a ceremonial space for contemporary, health-conscious, and awakened individuals to reconnect with themselves and nature.

At Icaros Festival, we’ll share our Steam Ceremony in an intimate, supportive setting — offering moments of grounding, cleansing, and embodiment using traditional steaming herbal brooms made from oak leaves to awaken the body and release energy blockages.

Welcome to our healing sacred circle!
