Event Marsden Imbolc

A community festival of celebration based around the celtic 'Imbolc' marking the time when the earth begins to wake up after its winter sleep. The festival was started by Kirklees Countryside Volunteers about 20 years ago' primarily for the people of Marsden to come together at a quiet time of the year and to explore the environment around them and to be aware of the turning of the year.

Imbolc has evolved over the years and now draws from a larger' more diverse community in terms of both performers/participants and audience.

The festival involves a procession led by 3 'druid' type Characters, Mr Fox, samba & other bands and stilt walkers mixed with the procession and people carrying fire lanterns.

This is followed by entertainment; a fire 'circus' accompanied by the Fox Drummers and a singing group.

Jack Frost and the Green Man battle for the spring.
