  • It's Beltain! The original May Day festival celebrated in the Iron Age, and our biggest event of the year!
    Every year, we hold our Beltain Celtic Fire Festival to mark this ancient festival, complete with live music performances, morris dancing, incredible drumming, and of course the burning of a 30ft wickerman. We've been holding this celebration at Butser annually since the 80s, and this video captures the best bits of one of our favourite festivals -- 2022!
    To everyone who joined us, thank you for making this event so special 💚 We hope to see you at Beltain in the future!

    I was at Butser Farm in 1982 - I believe there were three round houses on the site back then. Fascinating place - I am very glad it is thriving still

    Beltane was a fire festival linked to those societies that practiced transhumance - the movement of livestock to summer pastures.
    It was found in Ireland and the western and northern areas of Britain.
    What evidence is there that it ever occured in Hampshire?
    Fertile lowland 'England' would have celebrated a form of May Day much more in keeping with the one found today - for instance in Padstow.

    In the Celtic culture, e.g. the Celtic tribes on Lake Chiemsee, who were robbed of their homeland by a fatal comet impact event around 2000 years ago, human sacrifices were burned in these large straw figures, which were intended to appease the Celtic gods. People tend to ignore the other side of this culture.

    Was that social historian Ruth Goodman in the crowd at 7.18?

      It was! She visited with Rob and Dave Nicholson to film Channel 5's 'A Farm Through Time' with us 😊

    Awwww this pagan worship looks so innocent.

      Not all paganism is extreme debauchery and survivalism.

      And in this case the 'Ancient Celtic Festival' is a modern made up nonesense.
