Get to Know Frequency One Fest
The Mission and Message of Frequency One is this: A music and holistic healing fest to gather and camp in community to awaken and elevate in a retreat meets festival experience.
One Love. We are One Frequency. We come together regardless of race, religion, sexuality, gender, and political differences. We hold space as community. Frequency One. That is what you can hold us accountable to.
Emily Thompson created this vision after attending a festival called Project Earth and Shangri-La in 2019. She was in a place of "in between" as she had been burned out in her Nursing career and looking for deeper meaning in life. As a Registered Nurse she never imagined finding her path by sitting in the grass listening to music but that was where she was transformed more than anywhere else.
She knew that the people of her community needed to experience what she had, especially since she lived in the very place known as "Destination Medical Center", Rochester, Minnesota. She set out to learn everything about holistic healing. She opened her own healing practice called Waves Sacred Healing and grew her friendships in the festival community.
The dream has been evolving since Spring 2022 with 14 people in her own living room. We have moved to a friends back yard, then a large front yard, a Spring Day festival at a Wedding Venue, and officially planted as a Weekend Camping Fest in July 2024.
Although those were successful, with the help of her partner, Eric, they continue to manifest and follow this mission and are ready to find land to call a HOME for Rochester's First Camping Music Fest. We enjoyed the land we were able to begin with in 2024, however, this journey is truly about FULL Alignment and that means to create a permanent space to invest into and implement the community projects in the future (More to come). because she knew it needed to move in the direction of a retreat meets music fest for the ultimate experience.
Frequency One Fest, L.L.C. was officially registered as a business in December 2023 and all the wheels of motion then began. Together, with the support of her partner in life, Eric Fitzpatrick, and a dedicated team, they hope to bring a magical experience that will grow as they go.
