ESTANCIA LOS CORRALES, ARGENTINA — In collaboration with event producers from around the world, Global Eclipse presents the Patagonia Gathering, a seven-day arts, music, and cultural celebration of the total solar eclipse on December 10-16th, 2020.
Global Eclipse is comprised of event producers, artists, and creators from all over the world. The core of the group is Symbiosis who have produced Symbiosis Gathering in California since 2005, an annular eclipse gathering in Nevada in 2012, co-produced the Total Solar Eclipse in north Queensland, Australia in 2012, and Oregon Eclipse in 2017.
The 2017 event brought together twelve festivals from around the world in a collaboration to celebrate a solar eclipse. The 2020 event will change the game again. Global Eclipse Patagonia Gathering will be full of art, music, educational workshops, yoga, dance, permaculture and myriad opportunities to inspire the soul and enliven the spirit. The gathering site is in Patagonia in the Neuquen Province. The site lies exactly on the line of Maximum Totality, offering the best location to view the Total Solar Eclipse.
In addition, east of the Andes is in the Rain Shadow which is when “mountains block the passage of rain-producing weather systems and cast a “shadow” of dryness behind them.” This leads to less moisture but more importantly less chance of clouds which increase the odds of witnessing this cosmic spectacle.
You can expect a diverse array of electronic music and live bands featuring many acts from Argentina, Chile and the entire South American continent. Artists will come from around the world to build monumental art and immersive environments that will whisk you away into an reality of joy and wonder. While this experience is very international, they are focused on honoring the culture of this magical experience and sharing it with everyone!
