2022 Samhuinn Fire Festival Event Coordinator Tom Watton stated, “The society is excited to be continuing these traditions in Edinburgh, this time on and under Hagg’s Knowe in Holyrood Park.”

“As our events happen alongside an audience in collective celebration of the changing seasons, we welcome as many people as possible to come in fire-safe guises on this coming Samhuinn night.”

Samhuinn involves 200+ volunteers performing in wild costumes with captivating fire-play, acrobatics and drumming. This year, the finale will be performed on a raised stage, meaning many more people will witness the festival’s key moments including the fierce duel between our Summer King and Winter King, and the unveiling of the Cailleach.
