Cloak & Dagger

Step into the story. Wield your magic. Walk the world as the heroine.

A fantasy-fuelled, immersive retreat for women ready to embody their inner warrior, enchantress, or rogue.

Remember the first time a book made you want to be someone else? The assassin with the golden heart. The pirate queen. The witch who set the world on fire. Cloak & Dagger is your chance to let that version of you rise—sword in hand, cloak sweeping, laughter wild and spine straight. It’s an immersive, story-based retreat where we turn book obsession into embodied experience. Fantasy isn’t an escape. It’s a return to what’s been waiting inside you.
