Registration
Dragon Haven Beltane RSVP 2026
May 1st- May 3rd 2026
Okay friends— it is THAT event 🔥🌸
Dragon Haven’s Beltane gathering is happening May 1st–3rd, and we are stepping fully into the fire of the season together. Our shared intention for the weekend is simple but powerful: we release what is false, and step forward in truth and becoming. If you’ve been feeling the pull to shed, to grow, to celebrate, this is your moment.
Please make sure you RSVP by midnight on April 27th. As per usual- Donations of $10 per adult can be sent in advance to the cashapp, or $15 cash at the door. Check-in will be open Friday from 2–7pm and Saturday from 9am–4:30pm, so plan your arrival accordingly and give yourself time to settle into the land.
We begin Friday evening with a grounding and shielding class with Kate C. at 6pm, followed by our opening ritual at 7pm as we begin the weekend together.
Saturday is a full and vibrant day—vendors, classes, and offerings for all ages, including an adult craft, teen class, kids story hour and craft, Beltane games, and of course the Maypole. Talbin will be teaching Witch, Enough at 10am, and the energy will continue to build throughout the day.
At 6:45pm we will line up for our main ritual. This ritual is family-friendly. We will begin by witnessing the handfasting of two deeply loved members of our community, Kate C. and Michael. Their dedication and presence have touched so many of us, and it is an honor to witness and hold this sacred moment alongside them. Then, together, we will shed the lies we tell ourselves- releasing toxic patterns, behaviors, and beliefs as we cleanse in the smoke of the Beltane fires. The God and Goddess will be led to a private space to enact the Great Rite on behalf of the community, followed by drumming, fire spinning, and dancing as we move deeper into the celebration. At 8:30pm, the ritual circle will close briefly for set up as we transition into the later evening.
After 9pm, the energy of the space shifts- no minors will be allowed in the common areas and must remain at their campsites or within their camping area with an adult or trusted older sibling.
At 9:30pm, we enter our Adult Only Beltane Fire and Union Rite, beginning with Thornn’s “Consent, Courtesy and Common Sense Briefing—AKA How Not To Be A Problem: Beltane Edition.” If you wish to enter the ritual space at any point after that time, you must attend this briefing—no exceptions, no entry otherwise. If you plan to participate, we encourage you to bring towels, blankets, or sleeping bags for your comfort. If you are planning on using this rite to work on something specific and wish to bring something for the altar, feel free to do so. Please note- while we will offer a space to leave your cell phones, no phones will be allowed in the circle during the rite.
For those who prefer a different rhythm, the bard circle will remain open for drumming, dancing, socializing, and more lighthearted shenanigans throughout the night.
Sunday morning, we come back together to ground and close. Community clean-up begins at 9am, followed by our closing ritual at 10am- please wear comfortable, stable shoes as we complete our work and send everyone off clear, connected, and whole.
This is a weekend of fire, connection, transformation, and joy. We cannot wait to see you there. 🌿🔥
