Here in the beautiful Teign Valley Beltane will be delivering their penultimate 'Out' of this summer season, and honouring their WONDERFUL MUSICIANS for all that they have delivered through a long, and often hot, summer. Dances will be danced with all the verve they have left. Songs will be sung with gusto. Sticks will be wielded with malice. They will be joined by Tinners Morris. And you can come and see all this for yourself... Beltane will be there, no matter what!

Beltane back on the Quay, outside The Prospect, in the fading summer, evening light. The clash of sticks; raised voices and lively dances. Urgency, passion, menace and beautiful music. Solid rhythms, melancholy melodies and harmonies. Beltane will be at their best - and joined by Mayhem - their old partners in crime. The season is fast coming to a close - so, make the most of these last opportunities to see them!

Beltane by the sea - turning up, turning round, turning out and eventually turning into the mad, wild and dark, noisy dancers and musicians, to entertain and possibly disturb you, between the pub and the deep blue sea - what can possibly happen? You're running out of time - this is one of the last three times we will be dancing out this season. Not to be missed!

Beltane gather to support Moretonhampstead Carnival on an exciting August Thursday evening! Could be balmy... Could be wet. But whatever the weather, Beltane will have their stomping boots polished, their feather and bones brushed and their sticks at the ready. This is home territory for many of Beltane - so they should be on good form. Come and see!

Bouyed by our success at Bridport we are poised and ready to go to Sidmouth and shine - darkly, of course. Just look at six of us! But we will be many, many more at Sidmouth; loud, proud, energetic, booted and brimming with enthusiasm and attitude. A little sea air will be good for the lungs and the thirst. We can't wait! See you there!

'Come forth Beltane!' calls the Squire - and we come. Every year we return to one of our favourite pubs, and Beltane words are spoken, hands are waved, stories told, voices raised. We line up. We prepare. Dancers listen. Musicians warm up. Drums beat. Hearts beat. In the heart of Dartmoor, we are called, we come and we dance. And this time so do GRIMSPOUND BORDER MORRIS - A truly monumental evening is promised!

Catch Cogs and Wheels swishing and Beltane stamping at The Cleave, Lustleigh on Thursday, 18th July, from 19.45.
Please Like and Share, see you there :)

Look who we're sending over to Shaugh Prior to scare the children and worry the dogs... Beltane remember the last time they were there, and the chips - oh the chips! A great time was had last year, and it might be repeated again - only this time they will have Catseye with them - this should be interesting and just a little bit worrying!

We are jumping for joy to be returning to dance with our old friends and colleagues Otter Morris on this auspicious day - the 4th July! There will be merry making and Beer swilling, stick waving and fancy footwork, laughter and a healthy dose of competition - but that's what we do when we're with friends! Come and watch the sport and avoid the flying bits!

I tried to find a photograph of us looking like sailors... or at least pirates... but this is as near to the water as I could get! And it is Teignmouth after all. So heave ho me hearties - come and join us outside and inside the Old Jolly Sailor, with our dear old friends, Isambard's Gasket Rats - pirates one and all - Ha Harrr!!

WE love the Tally Ho - scene of raucous episodes in the past. A quiet and beautiful place, is Littlehempston, and they invited us back again! Tally Ho! Come prepared!

Off we unjolly well go, to dear old Chagford to dance again, on Dartmoor. This time we are being joined by Shumba Arts Drum and Dance, so more action than usual! What a wonderful place to spend a quiet summer evening, in dark and noisy company!

Another journey to Topsham to dance with their old friends, Glory of the West, and hopefully, if Beltane have recovered from their spell at Chippenham, a good time will be had by all. Let's hope the weather is good, the beer is plentiful, the spirit is strong and the flesh is willing!

Join us whatever the weather decides to throw at us as Beltane Border Morris and other local morris sides dance the sun up at Hay Tor. And if the sun's not visible expect to hear the defiant roar of our fire torches in the howling gale and the incessant sizzle of rain, hail and snow vapourising amongst our flames! We gather from 5 and the morris side that can muster a set first starts this ancient celebration marking the arrival of summer!
