Golden Wellness Almanac, Network & Online Directory

Designed to grow alongside the festival, the Network and Online Directory will strengthen our regional wellbeing economy, support collaboration, and share the wisdom gained at the festival.

In 2026, Golden Wellness Festival expands beyond the festival day to introduce three new industry offerings designed to strengthen visibility, connection, and collaboration across our region’s wellness sector:

  • Golden Wellness Industry Network (growing every day)

  • Golden Wellness Online Directory (coming soon)

  • Golden Wellness Almanac (out now)

Together, these create a trusted central hub where our community can discover practitioners, makers, teachers, and wellness experiences that reflect our shared values of environmental sustainability, ethical care, and the meeting point between ancient wisdom and contemporary practice.

Golden Wellness Almanac

Connecting wellbeing and community in Central Victoria.

This Golden Wellness Almanac 2026 is a tangible expression of that growing network. Part festival guide, part community journal and part practitioner directory, it brings together this year’s program, presenter profiles, interviews, essays and regional wellness offerings in one place.

We hope it becomes a trusted companion for residents and visitors alike, helping people discover the diverse services, skills, people and experiences that enrich our region. More than a record of the festival, this almanac celebrates a thriving and interconnected wellness community, while strengthening the relationships that will continue to support collective wellbeing long after the festival has ended.

Golden Wellness Almanac

Our Golden Wellness Festival Program doubles as a regional Wellness Directory.

This professionally designed A5 guide spans more than 60 pages and is crafted to be kept, revisited, and shared, becoming a valued resource in homes, studios, workplaces, and community spaces throughout the year.

2,500 beautiful copies are being distributed across our region for audiences to pick up free of charge.

Enjoy the electronic flipbook or look out for a hard copy at your favourite studios, book shops and cafes across Central Victoria.

Golden Wellness Industry Network

All practitioners and makers participating in the 2026 festival are invited to join the new Golden Wellness Industry Network, a year‑round professional community convened and supported by festival staff.

We’ll be working together throughout the year to design and deliver a vibrant mix of Network events, forums, retreats and pop‑up activations. Stay connected by joining our mailing list and following us on socials, so you’re the first to know what’s coming next.

The Network strengthens relationships, fosters collaboration, and builds a connected wellness sector for our region.

Golden Wellness Directory - Online

The Golden Wellness Directory (online) is a new digital portal showcasing the practitioners, makers, healers, teachers, and wellness businesses who help our region thrive.

Created in response to a clear need voiced by local practitioners, the Directory offers a single, reliable place for people to discover who to see, where to go, and what’s available across the Central Victorian wellness landscape.

It is free to access and is designed for ease, clarity, and community connection, strengthening visibility and supporting wellbeing across the region.
