Time & Location

The Cardinal, 17301 Memorial Tournament Dr, Moseley, VA 23120, USA

About the event

There is so much going on in Richmond's wellness community, but it all happens in silos: word-of-mouth, Instagram posts, etc. Someone looking for guidance or healing has to be deep in the community to learn what Richmond can offer.


With that intention, Rest Fest is designed to bring some of Richmond's best leaders, healers, facilitators, and practitioners to one location for the weekend, so Richmonders can find their people...and themselves.
