Note: The only one of these events I am personally involved with is my book launch party for Pagan Portals – Candle Magic. Do check with the organisers about tickets and timings before turning up to anything listed on my blog. I try to keep my listings accurate, but do not always know of late changes, cancellations or ticket availability.
