Join us for our Annual Lughnasad Celebration 

In Celtic mythology the god Lugh established the festival as a feast, with games commemorating his foster-mother Tailtiu. We will be celebrating in much the same fashion as a tribute to Lugh and a celebration of the harvest.

Wait, Games? 

This year we are hosting an all-virtual, totally free Lugh that lets us take advantage of all the games that an online platform has to offer! Party games, Jackbox games, Zoom charades, Gartic phone, pictionary, quiz games, and more!

We'll also have a variety of our favorite online activities, include crafting together, socializing time, bardic, and other good opportunities to connect with each other.


Event Details

The event will run virtually from Friday August 1 at 7pm to Sunday August 3 at 2pm. All times are EST.

Registration for the event is free, though we are accepting donations to the Sunshine Fund for other events and general donations!
