People around the world are invited to celebrate humanity's common connection to water through the practice of hot springs bathing
On World Bathing Day, thermal hot spring bathing facilities all around the world will come together and put on their own vibrant display of events, each with a focus on water’s profound ability to bring us together and to stoke our deep connection to the natural world. Time spent together in water allows us to relax, to recharge and to reawaken our deep connection to the planet that supports us.
Throughout the day on Monday 22 June, we will be hosting a program of arts and culture events in celebration of World Bathing Day, complimentary with your bathing booking. Simply secure your place for Revitalise bathing and join in the celebration.
