Heathen Gang

This year, the Heidense Bende can also be found at Castlefest, the spiritual platform where various traditions come together annually to celebrate life.

For those who haven’t seen or heard us yet: each year at Castlefest, we come together like a small village to celebrate life. We do this through workshops, daily openings, and drum circles. Various programmes are offered, inspired by different traditions and paths.

This year, the theme within the Heathen Gang is Rituals. With open hearts, we warmly welcome Castlefest visitors to look around, join in the drum circles, or create an offering pouch.

Every day, we start with a Day Opening, where through a ritual and our theme of Rituals, we wish ourselves and everyone a pleasant beginning. After that, we gather with the drum circle, dancing and singing with passion and connection, led by a different group each day.

We consider our Heathen Gang field as a little village that comes together every day to celebrate life in happiness and connection. The rhythm of the drums feels like the beating of your heart, and the movement and sound flow through your veins. Do you want to experience this as well? Come dance with us! Follow your rhythm in the sound of the drums.

You are welcome to join us and feel free to celebrate life with joy and passion.

Check out our daily activities and Friday evening program below.

Be welcome on behalf of all Heathen Gang villagers
