Elements RELOADED

Elements is back!! And this time, it’s bigger, wilder, and created to transport you to another world.

After the energy and momentum of the first Elements at Kendal Mountain Festival, we’re returning in March 2026 with a reloaded experience created in collaboration with the legends at PortaSauna. Set within the stunning landscape of Whitmore Lakes, Elements: Reloaded brings together sauna, cold water immersion, wild camping and campfire culture in one shared outdoor experience.

Across the weekend, expect wood-fired sauna sessions, cold water swimming, campfire food and music, unlimited coffee and 0% alcohol, thoughtfully curated goodie bags, with the freedom to explore the lakes and surroundings of Whitmore at your own pace. This is about stepping away from the noise, slowing things down, and reconnecting, with nature and with each other.

This time around, Elements runs across two days with two ticket options: a Daytime Elements Experience on Saturday, or an overnight Campout Elements Experience for those wanting to stay, sleep under the stars, and wake up to dawn sauna and swim sessions.

Over the coming weeks we’ll be announcing new partners, experiences and surprises every week. What you see now is just the beginning.

Spaces are limited, and once they’re gone, they’re gone.

Whitmore Lakes

Whitmore Lakes is a breathtaking private lakeside setting in the heart of Staffordshire. Surrounded by open countryside and water, it offers the perfect environment for cold water immersion, sauna and slow, meaningful time outdoors.

Despite feeling wild and tucked away, the site is extremely accessible, located just off the M6 near Stoke-on-Trent, with parking and facilities on site. It’s the ideal balance of nature immersion and comfort, especially for a March event.

Full details on access & location will be provided after you book your ticket.

Where the magic happens

your experiences

I’ve done a lot of cold water swimming and sauna, but Elements was so so good. The setting, the people, the pace of it all, it properly slowed me down.

Ben

No idea really what to expect but ended up having one of the most grounding experiences we’ve had! It was welcoming, relaxed and incredibly well thought out, nothing forced, just space to be.
