About this event

The event

This Fez Festival roundtable examines how religious experience is felt through sound, gesture, images, emotion and shared presence. The discussion forms part of the 2026 theme, 'Mystical Poetry, an Elixir of Healing'.

Artistic and cultural context

Rather than treating religious heritage solely as abstract doctrine, the topic invites reflection on embodied experience and the transmission of practices through stories, voices and ritual. The official listing confirms the session but does not identify a complete speaker list.
