The International Festivals unveil one of the world's most profound and remaining mysteries, the "Crystal Skulls".

The Crystal Skulls has been guarded and kept hidden for thousands of years. This Festival was organized to introduce the skulls to a wider audience. Are you truly ready to meet them...? Then read on ....

You are welcome to join and experience the crystal skulls!
(see below about the 2nd Festival in Hungary held in 2007 and discover the pre-event in Glastonbury for the U.K. Festival for 2009, held in Sept. 2008)

Our 3-day festival in the Netherlands (October 2006) brought together perhaps one of the largest collection of crystal skulls ever to occur within recorded history. Among our guests were some very special ancient skulls (jade and quartz) in combination with other more modern fashioned crystal and gemstone ones. Thanks to the special caretakers/guardians of these skulls, our participants had a chance to experience the powerful energies radiated by these crystal friends for personal transformations and awakenings. The talks and workshops given by the presenters were well received and covered a wide range of aspects related to the skulls. We were fortunate to also have our indigenous teachers attend, a Mayan High Priest from Guatemala and a mystic and shaman from Russia.

We offered to our participants, a simultaneous lecture and workshop, private sessions with the skulls present, a healing room, a movie room, an exhibition room for special skulls, several booths, several meditations for world peace and live music. Needless to say, this combination worked very well and was received enthusiastic by those who decided to join us!!

Due to the hard work, dedication and open cooperation from all the people who supported the Festival (over 20 volunteers, our sponsors including our host, 't Klooser van Rilland, the coordination team and the work of the presenters who joined us), the event was an unqualified success! Our heartful thanks to all the people who made it possible. We received many compliments from those who attended and we were asked "When is the next event?"

Related to this website (which we shall continue to host on-line for supporting future events and International Festivals), we have included a small part of what happened at the first Festival held in Holland. The best way to do so of course, is through pictures (photographs taken at the Festival) and personal stories. You will find various pages that include photographs (click here to view) to help us tell the story of the 2006 Dutch Festival and also there is another page (click here) that has comments from some of our participants.

As you can read below, we have continued to work with new friends (through our non-profit group, the World Mystery Research Center) to create more crystal skull related events and festivals for the future as Budapest became the location in 2007. We plan to continue such activities as a combination of small, what we call mini-events (one or two days) as well as a series of yearly or larger festivals similar to what was offered in Holland and Hungary in other countries in the world as well.

The International Hungarian Crystal Skull Festival (2007) -- 600+ people attended!!
The first crystal skull festival to ever be held in Hungary occured on October 13th - 14th (2007) and it was amazing how many people decided to attend. Additionally, there were several attendees who felt that there could be one or more crystal skulls hidden somewhere in Hungary. There also was a mysterious message a friend linked to the Festival received on the day following the Festival (see the festival report for more details). As a result of this Festival, the seeds for the next one were planted which resulted in a group of interested people from Belgium who will offer their own event next year.

On the menu to your right, is a link for reports about this Festival (or click here -- Hungarian Festival) where you can read about such and also see photos of what took place in Budapest.
To read our interview with Melinda Szemerey, the coordinator for the Festival in Hungary, please click here. When we asked the people at the end of the Festival on the last day, if they would
like to attend another in 2008, almost everyone raised their hand. So don't be surprised if we
announce at some time in the near future, a 2nd International Festival for Hungary.

Crystal Skull Festivals for 2009-2010
(United Kingdom and United States)

The Crystal Skull Conference in the U.K., June, 2009 (* - NEW - *)

As we announced previously, to initiate the energies for a Crystal Skull Festival in the U.K.
(the location and dates not yet known), in September of 2008, we setup a small crystal skull conference held in the Assembly Room in Glastonbury, or what we called a "Taster". This
event proceded very well, about fifty to sixty people were in attendance. It gave to our
participants an idea of what the bigger Festival was like. Below is more information about
the Glastonbury Event.

For 2009, through the efforts of Sharon White-Elk Woman and her partners, a new Crystal Skull Conference will be held in Kent from June 14th-15th, as the next step to prepare for an International UK Crystal Skull Festival. This conference has its own website, that has all the details about this conference if you wish to join us. There are six speakers who will be present with their crystal skulls and private sessions with the skulls will be offered. To learn more about the 2009 UK Crystal Skull conference, please visit:

The Glastonbury Event in the U.K., September, 2008

At this event, there were three individuals who gave talks (Sue Kitts *, Joshua Shapiro * and Sharon White-Elk Woman* with her fiance Brian) and other individuals who participated in other levels we wish to acknowledge as well (Wendy Willett * and Catherine Gaze; Gillian Ellis * & Claudia del Canto *; Willow for her paintings and drums; Felicity Wakefield and parnter Kim for advertising, Rafael and a friend of Sharon and Brian for help with setup and taking tickets). This event was a co-creation of many people that also included music and a bit of dancing with levity plus a panel at the end (the individuals who are asterisked above participated) and world peace meditation with the energy of the crystal skulls to finish.

If you click on the link below, you can view some photos taken from the Glastonbury Taster. There were easily over 100 crystal skull present of all sizes and shapes. A good energy was initiated at this gathering which you see in the photos, click on:

The current status for the UK Festival is that we hope through the Conference being held in June of 2009, that this will generate additional and enough interest to work towards a full Festival. Additionally we hope to create new small events about the crystal skulls throughout the UK throughout 2009 that could help us to find the proper resources to have the Festival become a reality.

If everyone would like more info about the UK Festival, please either send to Joshua Shapiro an email at: joshuashapiro@crystalskullevents.org or you can click on the menu to the left, at the bottom on Contact Us and fill out the form accordingly. Also if you join our mailing list, it will have updates about all the new Festivals.

U.S. Crystal Skull Festival (Fall 2009) -- we are continuing to have discussions with various individuals and group in the U.S. to create the first crystal skull festival in America. At the moment we are exploring the possibility to hold one in the Atlanta area but this is only in a very preliminary stage. We still seek some additional resources and contacts to make this happen. Again you can send an email to Joshua if you have questions or interest or just select CONTACT US on the menu to your left, and fill out our on-line form to receive further updates.

Crystal Skull World Peace Meditations
2009-2011

You are invited to participant in what could be
an important event for the Future of our world

Our friends the Crystal Skull Explorers, who have been an active supporter and co-creator of the International Crystal Skull Festivals, asked us to share this important announcement.

On August 8th (2008), they publicly announced the creation of a series of seven meditations for world peace that will be conducted starting on January 1st, 2009 and finishing on January 1st, 2011. The idea is to bring together as many (or all) of the crystal skull caretakers or guardians by 2011, meditating for world peace working with the energy of the crystal skulls. Already the four meditations for 2009 have been successfully conducted and a series of smaller meditations will begin in April of 2009.

If you would like to know more about these series of meditations, they have created a webpage
that provides additional information and explains the goals for these activities. Please feel free to
visit the page shown below (just click on the link):

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To continue to be kept informed of new crystal skull events and the series of International Festivals as they are announced, please feel free to periodically check back at this website or join our mailing list. As the dates and locations of these new events are confirmed, announcements will be made on this page. We are supporting events which follow the same principles and philosophies that guided us for the Dutch Festival in 2006, which is: to honor equally all crystal skulls and their caretakers who participate in such events along with all the other people who assisted in the creation of the event or even attended. We are working on new Festivals for 2009 possibly to be held in the U.S. and U.K. so stay tuned!!

If there are other people visiting this website who would like to bring a crystal skull event to their own geographic area or are planning a similar type of future event and would be interested to work together, please feel free to contact us.

So please stay tuned for future announcement or if you wish to know more about how the Festival in Holland was organized, the original pages for the site are still here. Thank you for your kind attention,

in peace and light

The Crystal Skull Events Team!!
