Our path has moved from the island to the mountains. TRMMISA now finds its gathering place in the Sandras Mountains of Türkiye, beside a mountain lake, beneath the trees and the open sky.

The sea crossing has become a mountain pilgrimage.

Inspired by the spirit of the Lycian paths, we imagine a journey measured not in distance, but in what we discover along the way. Stone beneath our feet. Wind through the forest. The reflection of the sky upon the water. And somewhere beyond the familiar, a circle of people who have come to create something together.

There is no ancient initiation we claim to reproduce. Our ritual is our own: to arrive with open hearts, to care for the land that welcomes us, and to meet one another through music, movement, and art.

Leave your titles at the edge of the dancefloor. Bring your curiosity, your kindness, your strange and beautiful self.

We are the organizers. You are the participants. Together, we are the creators.

TRMMISA is built through that shared responsibility. It does not begin with a corporate budget or the machinery of a commercial agency. We have zero upfront corporate funding. What we have is the work we put in, the trust we build, and the community willing to help bring this gathering into existence.

Every artist, builder, dancer, and helping hand becomes part of its shape. Every ticket purchased helps turn an intention into sound, shelter, light, and a place to gather.

Our ticket pre-sales until the end of March 2027 will determine whether we can make this happen responsibly.

This is our pact with everyone who joins the journey: we will proceed only if those sales allow us to meet our commitments to the artists, crew, and people coming to dance.

If we reach the necessary milestones, we will gather from 16–20 June 2027, among the forests and mountains of Sandras. We will follow the music through darkness into morning, watch the light return to the lake, and give something of ourselves to the days we share.

If pre-sales fall short, we will respect that reality. We will cancel the gathering and refund 100% of all ticket payments.

Faith in the journey means being honest about what it takes.

And our responsibility continues beyond the dancefloor. The forest is a living place. The lake is not a backdrop. We come as guests, with a duty to protect the water, respect the wildlife, leave no waste, and care for one another.

The mountain asks for no performance from us. Only that we pay attention.

Come to dance. Come to build. Come to listen.

The gathering takes shape through all of us.
