Elf Fest is usually the largest festival of the year at Lothlorien. It is a Spring celebration, with rituals, stage performances, a variety of events in the daylight hours and general drumming and dancing around a central fire in the Thunder Dome after dark.

Past activities have included a Labyrinth, a blessing of the cars, late May Maypole dancing,  spiral dancing, saunas/sweats, plant walks with the Herb Lady, women’s circles, magic shows and musical performances ranging from madrigals to heavy metal. There have been workshops in art, animal spirit guides, dowsing, solar power, drum repair and etiquette, yoga, belly dance, poi, mask making, Celtic Wicca, rhythm drumming and ecological gardening. Meanwhile there is plenty of time to relax with friends and family, swim in the creek and share food and conversation around the many fires. Each year is different and we are open to new ideas from any tradition.

Pets: Pets are not allowed at WMG and ELF Fest. Service animals are of course always welcome. To avoid any confusion, we appreciate advance notice and having the service animal’s medical records sent to: lothlorieninfo@gmail.com Attn: Pet Committee.
