Dinner Circle


At the Lost 40 Music Festival, the dinner circle is a special gathering where participants come together to share food and poetry. The circle is typically formed by holding hands, singing a song, and giving thanks. The circle is formed around a large communal pot, with participants sitting in a circle while servers come around to serve them food.

In the center of the circle, there is a poetry slam where festival artists and attendees alike are invited to share their poetry with the group. This creates a unique and inspiring atmosphere, with people from all walks of life coming together to express themselves through the spoken word.

The dinner circle is an important part of the Lost 40 Music Festival, as it promotes a sense of community and sharing among participants. It is a time for people to come together, and enjoy a meal in a peaceful and harmonious setting.
