If you or your ritual group are interested in facilitating an Open Ritual for the PF London, please contact us. Thank you.

All members & non-members are welcome to attend, including children (with a parent or guardian supervision). The Open Rituals are friendly and informal, catering for both beginner to paganism and experienced people. Each ritual is different, often giving an insight into the variety of pagan religions and paths. There is usually a participation aspect to these rituals - but it is entirely voluntary. Beginner may wish to attend a few and observe, make friends before they become comfortable in full participation. You will usually have time afterwards to socialise with others, while enjoying the feast (food & drinks). Feel free to bring some food/drinks to share.

There is a small fee charged towards booking & running costs. These Open Rituals are run entirely by volunteers, and the ritual groups who come to facilitate rituals give their time freely to the Community. We are also starting Outdoor open rituals in 2006, at a natural Woods in North London.

 We are keen to ensure the PF London Open rituals have a good representation of the many Pagan paths - Wiccans, Druids, Shamans and more. We also wish to ensure that a level of quality and openness towards new comers is maintained. If you are an organiser or member of an established Ritual group and are interested in doing an Open Ritual for PF London, please contact us.
