More details

  • This is an open grove or druid circle ie. Open to non-members.
  • Most regulars will be wearing robes, but for new people we don't insist on them. However do try to wear something other than normal 'street wear'. It is a 'special occasion' so we can dress up a bit, i.e.. woman may want to wear a long dress & ethnic jewellery and you will be able to change when you get here.
  • You wont be required to say anything in ritual unless you volunteer for one of the roles, which usually get snapped up by the regulars.
  • Also we plan to be outside in Our grove (If we don't get rained on, if it does we have room inside the house). Please note: it can get quite cool up here during the evening, cloaks or warm shawls are very handy.
  • In circle there will be garden flares and afterwards a camp fire for the feasting area.
    We will be having a Bardic circle & feast afterwards so bring party food, wine etc.
  • Close of circle will be followed by a Bardic circle. The Bardic circle is a casual party buffet feast sitting about the main fire - where people are invited to spontaneously play instruments, sing a song, tell a story, recite a poem or other Bardic activity. Including much merriment & feasting.
