A playground for growth
February 22, 2023 - Harvest Kaplankaya will run from May 10 to 14, 2023. This curated four-day experience at Six Senses Kaplankaya brings guests and influential speakers together to rediscover human connection, discuss global issues, and celebrate human potential.
By “harvesting knowledge to nurture ourselves, each other and the planet”, Harvest Kaplankaya aims to leave you feeling refreshed, revitalized and inspired. Running from May 10 to 14, 2023, the event is hosted at Six Senses Kaplankaya and filled with fascinating talks, hands-on workshops, nourishing gastronomy, moving performances, and spirited music.
“The small changes we make in ourselves and our lives can have a big communal impact on the planet. In gathering together to share knowledge and ideas, we give ourselves the best chance at being progressive rather than simply reactive. We are social beings, and only by celebrating life in social circles can we reach our full potential.”
May 2023 theme: forging “radical hope”
Humans, like nature, are hardwired to survive, but our resilience isn't simply based on our intelligence, strength, or technology. It's also about our ability to hope and to reimagine social constructs to build a more connected, more peaceful world. For four days, a gathering of world experts, artists, and intellectuals are coming together to explore the questions: Where have we come from? What’s going on in the world today? And where do we go from here? Breaking down human constructs across time, the community will begin to identify what in the past and present serves us and the planet, concluding with radical hope for building a brighter future. The kind of hope that is durable enough to encounter setbacks, and powerful enough to overcome impossible odds.
Intimate community
One of the greatest and most distinctive traits of Harvest, which sets it apart from others of its kind, is the intimacy between speakers and the audience. Conversations are fluid and interactive, making connecting with others simple, relaxing, and inspiring.

On the edge of turquoise waters with Greek islands as the backdrop, Six Senses Kaplankaya is spread over a hilly and rugged terrain dotted with olive groves and pine trees. Thanks to the warm climate in this region of Turkey, Harvest takes place mostly outdoors, taking advantage of one of the seven beachfronts for the main stage and the spectacular restaurants and bars for evenings under the stars. The 10,000 square-meter spa offers unique high-end treatments targeting nutrition, longevity, detoxing, immunity, and sleep. Fitness facilities also include a state-of-the-art gym, yoga room, basketball, and tennis courts, cycling studio, and more.
