As the veil between worlds grows thin and the mysteries of Samhain stir, you are invited to join us for an evening of enchantment, remembrance, and celebration at the 4th Annual Samhain Spellbound Masquerade.

We begin the evening in sacred space with a guided séance ritual, honouring our beloved dead and those who have crossed beyond the veil. Together, we will reflect on the wisdom they leave behind, open our hearts to their presence, and embrace the transformative energies of the Pagan New Year.

As twilight gives way to celebration, the atmosphere shifts from reverence to revelry. Adorn yourself in your most magical attire, don a mask if you wish, and step onto the dance floor for a spellbinding masquerade led by the incomparable ConnieQ. Through music, movement, and joyful expression, we celebrate the cycles of life, death, and rebirth that lie at the heart of Samhain.

In the spirit of community, this is also a potluck gathering. Please bring a dish to share, inspired by your astrological element.

Earth signs (Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn) are invited to bring a main dish
Fire signs (Aries, Leo, Sagittarius) a side dish
Water signs (Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces) a salad
Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) a dessert
As we gather around the feast table, we'll share food, stories, and fellowship, celebrating the abundance of the season and the bonds that connect us.

Blending ancient traditions with modern celebration, the Samhain Spellbound Masquerade offers a unique opportunity to honour the past, celebrate the present, and welcome the year ahead. Whether you come seeking connection with your ancestors, a night of joyful dancing, or simply the magic of gathering in community, you will find a place among kindred spirits.

ConnieQ (she/her) is a long-time ecstatic dancer who weaves rich tapestries of music bringing together flowing chants, grindy bass, high-vibe EDM, world beats and more. As unbound by the boxes of genre as she is by gender, Connie honours the transformative power of embodied movement for somatic wellness, for healthy connection, for release, joy, and playful fun. She invites journeys into whatever moves us in the moment and exploration of what arises within as we come alive through dance.
