Summer Flow 2026: Two days to move, create, connect and heal
In a city where health often means prescriptions, test reports and hurried doctor visits, Summer Flow 2026 is asking Dhaka to look at wellbeing differently.
Summer Flow 2026, a two-day festival aimed at promoting holistic wellbeing in Dhaka, will take place from August 21-22 at Gulshan Shooting Club. Unlike conventional health approaches, the event encourages visitors to consider wellbeing beyond just the absence of disease. Participants can take a free "Flow Score" to evaluate their progress across eight key areas of life: movement, nutrition, mindfulness, rest, connection, gratitude, creativity, and purpose. These self-assessments will help attendees identify areas that may require more attention.
Mental wellbeing will be a significant focus of the festival, with open conversations surrounding men's emotions, workplace exhaustion, cancer, stress, and difficult life experiences. Instead of traditional lectures, these discussions promote an environment where people can openly share their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment.
The weekend's programming also includes an early-morning musical run through Hatirjheel, as well as a variety of workshops, including yoga, martial arts, Bharatanatyam, salsa, and Bollywood dance classes.
In addition to the physical activities, the festival will showcase music, poetry, art, and open-mic performances, providing a multifaceted experience for attendees. As life in Dhaka becomes increasingly fast-paced, the organizers see Summer Flow 2026 as a timely initiative that reminds people that sometimes health starts not with another medical test, but with moving, resting, creating, connecting, and simply talking.
The festival is led by a dedicated team behind The Flow Fest, which promotes holistic wellbeing, community engagement, and meaningful connections. For more information, contact [email protected].
