Our photo releases from the night of Beltane Fire Festival have come to an end (although we have plenty more rehearsal photos to share with you!). We things off on our website (link in bio) with the Unsaeli drummer’s energetic beats, the kelpie’s arrival on the Hill, and a contemplative Green Man 🔥🍃 Photo by Ken Dunton for @beltanefiresociety #beltanefirefestival #beltane2019 #fire #festival #firefestival #bonfire #edinburgh #igedinburgh #celtic #pagan #heritage #scotland #summerfestival #whatsonedinburgh

For our fifth photo release from Beltane Fire Festival, we look back on our luminous kelpie, our Green Man taking his seat in the Bower, and the dark court of the faeries beating the Earth’s rhythms 🥁 Photo by Ken Dunton for @beltanefiresociety #beltanefirefestival #beltane2019 #fire #festival #firefestival #bonfire #edinburgh #igedinburgh #celtic #pagan #heritage #scotland #summerfestival #whatsonedinburgh

Can you believe it was only a week ago today that we threw our summery celebration at the top of Calton Hill? 🔥 Up next in our fourth collection of photos from Beltane Fire Festival (link in bio), we play with the Fairfaw, chant for fire with the Voice of the Hill, and watch the Beasties drumming their way over the Acropolis 🥁 Photo by Duncan Reddish for @beltanefiresociety #beltanefirefestival #beltane2019 #fire #festival #firefestival #bonfire #edinburgh #igedinburgh #celtic #pagan #heritage #scotland #summerfestival #whatsonedinburgh

Just a few days ago we gave summer a warm welcome back to Edinburgh at the epic Beltane Fire Festival.

Our second lot of photos from Beltane Fire Festival are here (link in bio) and there are some real beauties 🔥 This batch features the May Queen and the Green Man soaking up the first heat of summer at the bonfire, the Processionals opening at the Acropolis, and Reds exploring their new world all over the Hill 💃 Photo by Scott A.
