Samhain

Pronounced “SOW-in”

Definition:

An ancient Celtic festival marking the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. It is a time when the veil between the worlds is at its thinnest, allowing for deep connection with ancestors, spirits, and the unseen.

Traditionally celebrated on October 31st, Samhain honors death as part of the sacred cycle of life. It’s a time for remembrance, divination, and renewal, when we gather to reflect, release, and welcome the quiet wisdom of the darker months.

At Samhainfest, we honor these traditions through community, creativity, and celebration—bringing the old ways into new hands.

Experience the Festival

Come explore a rich lineup of seasonal experiences designed to delight and inspire:

Magical Marketplace

Community Connection

Live Music & Performances

Dumb Supper: A Silent Meal for the Ancestors

As part of Samhainfest, we invite you to join us for a Dumb Supper—a sacred, silent meal held in honor of those who have passed beyond the veil.

A ritual of remembrance.

Guests are invited to eat in silence, leaving a place set for the beloved dead. In this quiet space, we reflect, honor, and open our hearts to the presence of our ancestors.

You may bring a photo, token, or offering for the communal altar.
All are welcome, regardless of spiritual path or background.
Seating is limited, and participation is first-come, first-served.

This is a deeply moving part of the Samhain season—a time to listen more than speak, remember more than plan, and connect more than perform.
