Adult Beltane 2026

Adult Beltane 18+

As the wheel of the year turns toward the fire and fertility of Beltane, we gather once more to celebrate fertility, vitality, and the blossoming of life in all forms.

Please note: this is an 18+ Adult ONLY event.

Throughout the weekend, we will offer a variety of workshops exploring seasonal themes, spiritual practices, and creative expression. While final details are still unfolding, you can expect opportunities to learn, share, and grow together. We are also honored to welcome our musical guest, Spellsinger, whose enchanting sound will help weave the magic of the weekend into something truly memorable.

Beloved traditions return this year, including the joyful and symbolic Maypole dance. We will also host games inspired by strength, skill, and camaraderie—open to participants of all genders—bringing a playful energy to the gathering. Community camping and a shared potluck will offer time to slow down, connect, and nourish both body and soul.

As part of fostering a respectful community space, we will be bringing back our wristband system. Green wristbands indicate openness to friendly or flirtatious interaction, while red wristbands signal a preference not to be approached. This system is meant to support communication and comfort, but it does not replace the importance of consent—please continue to ask and honor boundaries at all times.

Whether you come to dance, to learn, to rest, or to connect, you are welcome here. This is a space to be seen, to belong, and to celebrate the vibrant energy of life alongside others walking their own paths.

Here at Oak Spirit Sanctuary we believe that everyone should have access to community and spiritual connection. If financial hardship is a barrier, please don’t let that stop you from attending. We offer options to support accessibility and encourage you to reach out so we can help make your participation possible. For more information click below.

We welcome vendors to be part of our Beltane celebration. There is no additional fee to vend beyond the cost of event admission. Vendors are kindly asked to contribute a donation to our art raffle or auction—items may be used during this event or saved for future gatherings to support the sanctuary and our community offerings.

If you are interested in vending, please follow these steps:

1. Register for the event through our standard attendance registration.
2. Complete the separate vendor registration form.

If you would like to be featured in our promotions, please send us an email with links to your pages, photos, and any materials you would like us to share. This also helps us highlight and thank you for vending with us—both during this event and in future community spotlights.

Join us as we light the fires of Beltane and celebrate the beauty of community.

The Basics of Camping at OSS

The grounds of OSS are open and do not have designated camping sites as one might expect at a state park campground. You may camp anywhere that is not a ritual or community space.  Tent, pull-behind campers, and drivable camping vehicles are all allowed.

Camping is rustic: there are no electric or water hook-ups, no flush toilets.  Porta-potties are available on site. Frog Bog (shower house) will be in operation for this event. 

OSS does not offer trash disposal services. Please plan to remove your own trash and recycling.

Pets may attend but must be leashed and under control at all times.

Natural Laws of Oak Spirit Sanctuary

We strongly recommend reading through the “Natural Laws” document to become familiar with the basic policies regarding land use and personal conduct when visiting and camping at OSS.
