Tribal Zone Tribal brings the ancient to the now, in a universal melting pot of global culture. Honoring the elements of earth and spirit and the cycles, together we create earthen music and dance, celebrating as our ancestors have done for time beyond memory. By day Tribal provides the space for some of Luminate’s Knowledge and Inspirational Sharing Sessions (K.I.S.S.) offering activities such as African drumming and dance, didgeridoo, harakeke (Maori weaving crafts), percussion, world voice, drum maintenance and more.

By night Tribal becomes a high energy drum circle, fire dancing jam zone, and a playground for all where the boundaries between performers and audience dissolve. Bring your drums, your toys and your open heart. Kick off your shoes and feel the pulse of the earth. Our collective heartbeat is the entrancing rhythm of the drums. Tribal runs from Thurs 10pm until midnight on Wednesday. “Luminate was the most positive renewing uplifting spiritual experience I have had. The tribal zone was a constant reminder of those who had gone before me, and the me that is now...A place of return. A place where strangers became very close loved ones.� Mary Bell, Luminate 2012
