The Green Man Beltane Ritual with The Temple of Ced

This year’s event is on Saturday April 25th! Gates open 12:00 pm.

Come join us with the Green Man Pagan Community
Tribe for a good old-fashioned Beltane Rite!

This celebration is not at the store, but at a NEW OFFSITE LOCATION: ***DETAILS TO FOLLOW***

No charge for kids under 13. However, a warning: It being Beltane & us being Pagans, the theme of the festival may at times be a bit suggestive and adult; as long as you’re cool with that, kids are most welcome & we expect there will be some present.

This is a picnic-type event and we encourage folks to bring some picnic eats for themselves to enjoy. Also, feel free to bring something for sharing on the Drinks table! Note: if you plan on drinking, please also plan on having your own food to soak up some of that booze, even if you do believe it actually helps your coordination for the Maypole! We have tried it sober & buzzed, but the Maypole Dance just seems to crash into mayhem every year regardless! Also, please bring camp chairs and/or picnic blankets to sit on.

Come, enjoy old world Pagan Pole dancing. Rub up against nature and a few frolicking nature lovers as we turn this year’s Wheel. And there can never be enough frolickers, right? Come experience the singeing of your unspeakables as you jump the Beltane Fire! Beat the ground, dance and make merry like a loon with bells on! Mischief, mayhem, what a pair, a bawdy line twixt foul and fair!

We plan to start the festivities at around 1:00 pm with a drumming circle, with our beloved drummer Goat! So please bring a drum or other favored noise maker and join the jam fest. Or wear something sexy so you can entertain the drummers with a dance!

The Ritual will kick off somewhere in the neighborhood of 3.00pm. I say somewhere in the neighborhood because pagans are notoriously late. And we are a large gathering, so getting folks in just takes a bit more time! Plus, festival leaders may be possessed by Faeries at this point, so ballpark times is really the best we can hope for.

The Main Rite is expected to go about an hour, give or take, depending on how lost we all get. After Ritual we can continue with feasting & socializing… Or perhaps, if you like, we can get into some more drumming?

Please bring refreshments you would like to drink. AND out of respect to us, please abide by the Law: people need to be over 21 to drink alcohol! Plus adults who are over 21, please show the art of adulting by drinking responsibly so we can all get to have some fun.

This ritual is offsite & tickets pre-purchased are absolutely required. Tickets are available ONLY on The Green Man Store website, and must be purchased NO LATER THAN 7PM THE DAY BEFORE THE EVENT.
