Enjoy Episode Two of ORIGIN, the global launch of a movement, featuring LOVE YOUR MOTHER concert for nature presented by OMMM.
Origin is a planet-wide celebration and call to action happening on October 17th, 2026, uniting millions in a synchronized moment led with Indigenous wisdom, live gatherings on every continent, and a shared global broadcast.
Anchored in South Africa’s Cradle of Humankind, a UNESCO World Heritage site northwest of Johannesburg, the global event will radiate to cities, villages, and homes everywhere.
Origin weaves ceremony, music, dance and storytelling with practical pathways for regeneration. It is a global celebration that honors our diversity, awakens our shared humanity, and channels collective intention into real projects for people and planet. Join us as we gather and rise as one humanity and move the world towards a positive future.
At its core, Origin encourages humanity to embrace its role as a keystone species, one capable of nurturing abundance rather than perpetuating extraction.
Origin bridges ancient traditions and modern innovations, offering a pathway to thrive in harmony with the planet. By integrating indigenous knowledge with forward-thinking ideas, participants gain tools for regeneration and resilience.
At the heart of the event is a synchronized global moment uniting millions in a shared intention of healing and unity. The moment will open with a prayer led by Indigenous First Nation elders grounding the experience in ancient traditions that honor the Earth. The moment will then crescendo into a musical anthem for Mother Earth, an invitation for people everywhere to rise and dance together in a collective celebration of our common future.
The event will includes an online summit featuring a powerful lineup of pre-recorded talks, panels, and workshops featuring global thought leaders, scientists, and cultural visionaries sharing bold ideas, breakthrough innovations, and stories that inspire action. All talks from the event will be archived and curated into an evergreen digital series, allowing participants to revisit the content or explore it at their own pace. This library of visionary insights will remain accessible to the worldwide community, serving as a lasting resource for inspiration, learning, and transformation.
The festival’s anchor location will be the Kromdraii Eco Lodge and Events Center, located near the Cradle of Humankind in South Africa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its rich paleoanthropological significance. The site contains the largest known concentration of ancestral human remains and symbolizes humanity’s origins and evolutionary journey. This location also holds deep cultural and historical importance, providing a powerful foundation for the festival’s mission.
An anchor highlight of the event will be a live global webcast produced by the trailblazing web-streaming company HubCast Media, which will enable participants to stream live directly from their smartphones, wherever they are. This content will seamlessly flow to HubCast’s live-switch studio, where it will be mixed and re-broadcast as a premium, high-quality program. Focused on fostering global collaboration, the event will amplify diverse voices, encourage cross-cultural connections, and redefine how media bridges communities in an increasingly interconnected world.
