About
A magical day out celebrating Samhain in a reconstructed Iron Age settlement, featuring creative activities and a Samhain bonfire.
The event celebrates Samhain, the start of the Celtic New Year, within a reconstructed Iron Age settlement. Participants can explore a Stone Age cave and venture into a haunted forest. Activities include building woodland shelters, decorating a chalk art auroch, and making pumpkin clay crafts. The day concludes with a story in the Chieftain Roundhouse and a fire procession around the woods, culminating in a Samhain bonfire on the final day.
