Beltane is one of the eight Pagan festivals on the Wheel of the Year and we have a big celebration for it here in Glastonbury.

It usually starts at midday at the Market Cross, and includes Morris dancers, stilt walkers, poetry and music performances, singing, dancing around the may pole and a big parade up the High Street.

If you are an early bird there is also a ceremony at the Chalice Well first thing in the morning.
