Thursday- Sunday, September 19-22

It will be, in the proper sense of the word, a remarkable weekend. The mix of speakers will be as eclectic as ever— from business to technology, from sport to design, from saving the planet to saving time, from the famous to the unknown, from the inspirational to the downright practical. At The Do Lectures you’ll gain practical tools, new ideas, and a different point of view. Speakers talk about their lives, how they think, what they’ve changed, or even what they hope to change. Attendees will be sleeping in furnished tipis, under the most amazing star filled sky and amongst a field of oak trees. There is the most amazing local organic food prepared by a talented chef each day. There are spaces for walking, talking, swimming and relaxing.
