Join us for a festival of storytelling and reminiscence celebrating the lives of our loved ones who have died.

This incredibly powerful event is now in its third year. The sharing of stories, anecdotes and photographs with each other follows the oral traditions of many cultures throughout the world, and offers the opportunity for healing and remembrance.

This is a free event held on Portobello Beach. There will be ample opportunity to commemorate, loved ones while sitting around mini-campfires enjoying some warming refreshments.

No matter where you are on your grief journey, you are welcome.

Please remember to be prepared for all weather conditions and bring along something to sit on for your own comfort.
