Update on Phased Reopening of Sunyata
Starting July 20th we will begin a phased reopening of some of the public spaces at Sunyata.
From July 20th it will be possible to visit the Dhamma hall and grounds between 9am and 5pm daily – however, booking is essential. Please do not come to the centre without prior booking.
In order to meet our responsibilities regarding public health there are a number of measures we have had to put in place, we request that everyone who visits the centre carefully read the information and complete the booking form here if you would like to visit after July 20th.
The centre remains closed until July 20th and please do not visit the centre after that date without having booked in advance. We will update with more information about subsequent phases in the coming weeks.
We look forward to welcoming you all back and opening Sunyata again!
