A Weekend with Exceptional Sauna Rituals!

20 Feb - 22 Feb

Experience Aufguss.it Friends Challenge at Farris Bad 

February 20–22, 2026 

In February 2026, we invite you back to one of the most sensual highlights of the year. Aufguss.it Friends Challenge returns to Farris Bad and this time the experience will be bigger, deeper and even more unforgettable. 

Over three intense days, 16 of the world's leading aufguss masters will gather at Farris Bad in Larvik. Here, tradition and innovation, precision and passion meet in ceremonies that challenge everything you thought you knew about saunas. 

As a guest, you will experience aufguss at its very best. Each ceremony is carefully composed and performed as a living work of art where warm, essential oils, music and movements merge into a holistic experience. It's not just about sweating, but about feeling, breathing, letting go and allowing yourself to be completely present in the moment. Forget sedentary saunas and routine. This is powerful. This is beautiful. This is aufguss on a whole new level. With its unique location by the fjord and its award-winning spa, Farris Bad forms the perfect setting for the Friends Challenge. Dedicated sauna enthusiasts, professional practitioners and curious first-time visitors meet here in an atmosphere of community, respect and genuine well-being. 

Over the course of the weekend, you can witness dozens of aufguss ceremonies, all different, all performed with technical perfection and deep respect for the ritual. This is a rare opportunity to experience the diversity, depth and magic of the aufguss tradition all in one place. Whether you are an experienced sauna guest or completely new to the world of aufguss, this is a weekend that will leave its mark. A weekend for the senses. A weekend for the community. A weekend you will not soon forget. 

Welcome to the Aufguss.it Friends Challenge 2026 – where warmth becomes art.
