Better late than never 🤍

Back in July, we had the joy of bringing Shivay to @sundance.community in Albania for the very first time, and we’ve been wanting to share this ever since.

We arrived not knowing anyone in this community personally. But from the very first conversation, everything felt open and easy, and that’s thanks to @chrishaskaj , He welcomed us into his community with so much care, love and warmth, and made us feel at home before we’d even unpacked.

Every day we opened the festival with a ceremony: breath, sound, and a moment to arrive together before the day began. What touched us most was how curious and open everyone was. For many, it was their first time trying something like this, and still they showed up fully, with trust and an open heart. Watching people who had just met sit side by side and slowly settle into the space is something we won’t forget.

Between the ceremonies there were long conversations, lots of laughter and plenty of hugs. Somewhere along the way, people we’d only just met started to feel like old friends.

We came as strangers and left with a family. 🙏❤️

Thank you, Chris, for opening the door. And thank you to the whole Sundance community, the organisers, the crew, the volunteers and every single person who joined us, for making this experience so beautiful. We took the warmth, the love and the connections home with us, and we're still carrying them months later.

See you in 2027. We can’t wait to come back and create something special together ✨❤️

It’s been a month since the very first edition of #SundanceFestival and, to be quite honest, it has taken me a little while to find the words, let alone put together an album that could somehow capture the exact feeling that was imprinted on me.

This has been a journey worthy of a book, with chapters that hold some of the strongest emotions my heart can fathom.

Looking back at where it all began, five years ago, when I was just a soul somewhere in the crowd, and looking at where we are today, after sleepless nights, an overwhelming amount of work, countless tiny details and the kind of dedication that only comes from truly believing in something, I feel nothing but grateful.

Surrounded by people who, somewhere along the way, became family, I had the privilege of being part of something that is so much bigger than any one of us, yet somehow makes each of us feel bigger too.

Being part of something that brings thousands of souls together, that creates moments we will carry with us long after the music stops, has to be one of the most beautiful accomplishments one can experience.

I’m so proud to be part of the @gowild_al family. Proud to live, create, dream and experience life alongside each and every one of you.

Proud of everyone who showed up and gave a piece of themselves to this beautiful madness.

Proud of every soul who stepped onto that dancefloor, not only physically, but wholeheartedly and mindfully.

Thankful for every sound, every smile, every tear, every laugh, every sleepless night, every little detail, and every person who made this possible.

Thankful for the memories that make me stop and think, “Oh, what a time to be alive.”

We made it.

We made it together.

And if this was only the beginning, I can’t wait to see what the next chapters hold.

See you soon, Sundancers.

Until then, keep chasing the sun. ☀️

Special thanks to @push_rod & @prettylightsz s for the everlasting memories. 🤍

Some moments are too big for words, but I’ll try.

The first edition of Sundance was everything we dreamed of and so much more. Getting here wasn’t easy. There were moments that scared us, moments where we questioned everything, moments where it felt impossible. But somehow, together, we made it happen.

This festival reminded me why I fell in love with festivals in the first place.

It reminded me to be present. To put my phone away, to dance a little longer, to hug people tighter, and to truly live every moment.

Because festivals have never just been about the music. They’re about strangers becoming friends, friends becoming family, and thousands of people creating memories they’ll carry long after the last song ends. They’re one of the few places where we allow ourselves to be completely free. Like an adult playground where, for a few days, we heal our inner child without even realizing it.

To every Sundancer who trusted us, danced with us until the very last minute, smiled, laughed, cried, connected, and became part of this story… thank you. You gave Sundance its soul.

To our incredible team, thank you for believing in this vision and giving your heart to every detail, especially when things got difficult. None of this would have been possible without you. @gowild_al

To everyone behind the cameras who somehow managed to capture the magic while living it at the same time, thank you for preserving these memories forever.
@push_rod @prettylightsz @endritkrasniqiii &team

And to every artist who stepped onto our stages, thank you for creating the soundtrack to moments we’ll never forget. Every set told a story, and every beat brought us closer together.

This isn’t goodbye.

This is thank you for believing in a dream. Thank you for becoming part of a new era, a new community, a new family.

P.S: So many people i wish i had a memory in this dump but you know i carry you in my heart.

Until next time, Sundancers.

See you soon. ❤️

Unposted from the best birthday ever🥰. I don’t know if I’ve said it enough, but I am so grateful for the people life has given me. 🤍
My family is my greatest blessing, and my friends are the family I got to choose. 🫶🏼
Thank you for filling my life with love, laughter, unforgettable memories, and for making every celebration feel like home.
The older I get, the more I realize that true wealth isn’t measured by what you have, but by who stands beside you🫂. Forever grateful… and please never change. You’re the most beautiful souls I’ve ever had the privilege to know. I love you all. 🤍
