About the event
It is said that it is in the period between October 31 and November 2 that the veil between the visible and invisible worlds is thinnest. Legends tell us that it is at this time that we can best connect with the spirits around us and with our beloved ones who have left to join the Other World. Did you know that our ancestors disguised themselves for a long time in this period precisely to scare away evil spirits? We have so much to discover about our ancient traditions that come together on these dates: Samhain, the Celtic New Year which begins with the entry into Winter, Halloween, All Souls Night, All Saints Day, the Day of the Dead... . these traditions aim to honor the deceased in joy as in sadness, and also to gather in community to celebrate life together.
We will start the festivities from 5 p.m.…
