The retreat officially runs from the evening of January 29, 2026 through the afternoon of February 1, 2026.

This retreat will be held in Asheville, NC — but Sessions happen all over the world. Whether you're joining us in the mountains, by the sea, or in the city, we always create a cozy, intentional space to connect.

Our events are intentionally designed as safe, celebratory spaces for women to connect through shared experiences of girlhood, creativity, and community. That focus is what makes the energy of these weekends so unique and meaningful.

We are also proud to welcome trans women and non-binary individuals who feel aligned with the spirit of this space. While we’d love to expand access even further in the future, we’re currently a small team with limited resources and are not yet able to accommodate all guests or lodging configurations.

As we grow, so will our ability to offer broader opportunities — always with care, intention, and inclusion at the heart. 💫

If you have specific questions, please reach out to us directly at shopthemirrorballmagic@gmail.com

Yes — attendees must be 21 or older. These retreats are designed for adult women looking to reconnect with themselves and others through creativity, friendship, and joy.

• Galentine’s Day mini event
• Curated photo corners for Taylor-coded content

Travel to and from Asheville is not included.

Great question! While your ticket covers almost everything once you arrive, here’s what’s not included:

✈️ Travel to and from the retreat location (flights, gas, airport transfers, etc.)

🍸 Extra personal purchases (alcoholic beverages, souvenirs, or any optional off-site activities)

💆‍♀️ Add-ons like entry tickets or one-on-one sessions (if offered)

We’ll always let you know ahead of time if anything optional comes with an extra cost — no surprises here, just glitter and good vibes ✨

✈️ The Closest Airport
The nearest airport is Asheville Regional Airport (AVL), located about 20–25 minutes from the retreat area. AVL is a small but convenient airport with direct flights from major cities like Atlanta, Charlotte, Dallas, and Chicago — making it the easiest option for traveling to our cozy mountain getaway.

🚗 Getting from the Airport
Rideshares like Uber and Lyft are typically available and usually range from $25–40, depending on traffic and time of day. Rental cars are also available on-site at AVL for those who want flexibility to explore Asheville before or after the retreat.

All rooms are shared in a cozy, group-style setting — perfect for bonding with fellow Swifties while still enjoying your own space to rest and recharge. Guests can choose from a bunk room, a shared king option for a semi-private stay, or upgrade to a personal king for extra comfort. No matter which you select, every attendee has their own designated bed and a welcoming corner to call their own for the weekend.

We love that you're nearby! That said, we kindly ask that all attendees stay onsite to keep the group connected and fully immersed in the retreat experience.

Many of the best moments happen outside of the scheduled activities — and we want you to be there for all of it.

Because our costs are distributed across meals, supplies, swag, and accommodations, we’re unable to offer a reduced rate for opting out of lodging. Thank you for understanding!

As much as we love furry friends, pets aren’t allowed at our retreats.

ADA-recognized service animals may be considered with respect to their necessity. However, we can’t guarantee approval, since the final decision lies with each individual venue owners. With 20+ women sharing a home, allergies are a common factor for both attendees and homeowners, so we have to be mindful of those needs as well.

If you have an accessibility request, please reach out before booking. We’ll always do our best to explore options with care and transparency. 💕

Yes! We offer Pay in 4 at checkout, so you can break your investment into more manageable payments.

We’ll send out a full packing list before the retreat — including any era-coded outfit inspo, cozy must-haves, and anything you’ll need for activities. Just bring yourself, your sparkle, and a willingness to connect.

This retreat is currently capped at 12 attendees. This creates a welcoming environment where real connections happen, and no one feels lost in the crowd.

We proudly stand for equality, kindness, and human rights — including full support for the LGBTQ+ community and other historically marginalized groups. Our events are rooted in celebration, connection, and mutual respect, and we’re committed to creating spaces where everyone feels safe, valued, and seen.

We uphold a zero-tolerance policy for bullying, discrimination, or bigotry of any kind. If you're joining us, we ask that you lead with empathy, uplift others, and show up with an open heart.This community is built on love, care, and the joy of coming together — and that’s exactly how we intend to keep it. 🌈💖

We’ll be serving a few light, themed drinks throughout the weekend — think fun cocktails or mocktails that fit the vibe — but we do not provide a full bar or cater alcohol services.

You're welcome to BYOB and enjoy your own drinks responsibly, especially during dinners or late-night hangs.

As for smoking, we follow all local laws and respect legal cannabis use where permitted, but ask that any smoking (of any kind) be outdoors only and away from shared community spaces to keep things comfortable for all attendees.

This retreat is about connection, presence, and shared joy — so we just ask that everyone participate with care, kindness, and consideration. 💖

Yes! While this particular event is U.S.-based, Sessions Retreats are hosted around the world, and we’d be absolutely honored to welcome friends from anywhere.

If you’re an international guest looking to join us, we’d love to hear from you and support you however we can. Community like this knows no borders. 💌

Because we begin booking venues, securing materials, and covering upfront costs the moment you reserve your spot, all payments are non-refundable.

We totally understand that life happens — but this retreat is a shared commitment. Every spot is accounted for in the overall budget, and when someone backs out, it affects the experience and cost for everyone else involved.

If you can no longer attend, you're welcome to transfer your spot to another guest, but it is your responsibility to sell or gift your ticket. We’re happy to help promote that in our community where possible, but we cannot issue refunds under any circumstances.Thanks so much for understanding — this policy helps us protect the integrity of the retreat and everyone who’s counting on it. 🤍
