This is your chance to join the Magpies as they gather in Old Strathcona at the Gazebo and dance in the dawn.

In case you hadn’t checked, 5.50am is early and the sun won’t be up yet (obviously) so dress warmly. In addition to dancing, their May morning ritual includes an invocation to spring accompanied by scattering herbs over a flame, and impaling a cake on a sword before tearing off chunks to eat. Sounds fun!
