Term: Festivals

DEFINITION:
A period, day, or several days of celebration, sometimes with religious significance. Many groups have created festivals for Pagans, occultists, magicians, and other magickal people. Attendance at such festivals range from a small group to hundreds or even thousands. Some are open to the general public while others are limited to those who pay to enter. Most often they involve camping, although some festivals offer cabins for participants. Usually, such festivals include workshops, rituals, vendors, and social interaction. A few festivals are actually held indoors at hotels and are more accurately called “conferences.”
