Sleep-in gong concert with Ana Sonar, Alejandro Notz & Fabio Vescarelli

The extended sound journey makes room for different ways of listening, including rest and sleep. The shared opening and unhurried morning give the night a clear beginning and ending.

Bring your own sleeping space and settle in for a whole night with the gongs. At Flow60 in Zollikerberg, Ana Sonar, Alejandro Notz and Fabio Vescarelli take turns playing softly through the night. You can listen, meditate, rest or sleep as the sound continues around you.

The evening begins with a tea ceremony and time to arrive, connect and set an intention. Gentle movement, breath and voice practices prepare the listening. Then you lie on your mattress or mat while the players alternate for seven and a half hours. Inspired by Gong Puja, the programme leaves time in the morning to wake slowly and return to the day.

Bring an inflatable mattress or sleeping mat, a sleeping bag or duvet, a pillow, warm comfortable clothes and water. The solo early-bird ticket costs CHF 120 until 12 November; the early-bird duo pack costs CHF 220 in total for two people. Regular solo admission is CHF 150 from 13 November. Prices include VAT. Book through the official ticket page, where the current duo offer is shown.
