Welcome to Satellites 26! Check here for the most up to date listing of everything that’s happening. There’s so much to get involved with so enjoy browsing! (Please note: we’re still making a few tweaks in the run up to the event so make sure to check back once the event starts!)
Log in to add sessions to your schedule and sync them to your phone or calendar.
You'll find us in the little rooms at the back left of the main arena (as you're facing the stage). They have glass windows/walls so you'll be able to see what's going on in the arena.
This is a small (hosted) breakout space where you can come and have some quiet if the arena feels too overstimulating. All young people must be dropped off by a youth leader and it’s fine to use it as a drop in and out space or stay for the whole time. We also have some ear defenders which can be borrowed if you’ve left yours at the tent. There'll be sensory lighting, fidget toys and some beanbags.
Please note: - this is a space for young people, unfortunately we’re not able to accommodate youth leaders due to space. - this is a sensory space for young people who might need support. If you want a space to chill, stretch out, be around less people or slightly less noise - please use Relay.

Come and join us during the main meetings. There is space to spread around, and a relaxed vibe if you need to be able to move more too, or you find it helpful to have fewer people around you. The venue is hosted by the Transform team as well as having everything from the arena shown on a big screen. There'll also be writing, drawing, journaling, colouring supplies for you to use whilst you engage with the session. It’s ideal if you need somewhere calmer than the arena whilst also hearing the talk and space to worship.
