"It’s a really special event to mark St Brigit’s Day. We take the inspiration from the Celtic goddess, going back into pagan times, and then looking at Brigit through a contemporary lens. "We have the Imbolc Fair for all ages, where you can do all different types of activities, from flower crown making or making Brigit Cross, walking tours and workshops, so lots to do."
"With an expanded programme for 2025, we’re excited to present over 80+ events that highlight the fierce, wise, and creative spirit of the Celtic goddess Brigit.
