About your trip

It is Samhain Eve; the night is cool, dark, and quiet. The gentle rolling hills of Ireland are cloaked in darkness, though bonfires dot the hilltops — an old custom in these parts. Around one of these fires stands a circle of witches, gathered on these ancient lands from all parts of the world. Their voices rise into the night air as they sing and chant, offering their words to the old ones. From the other side of the veil, the ancestors sing back…

Samhain Retreat in Ireland 2025

Have you ever dreamed of being in community with likeminded souls? Of celebrating the pagan festivals with your fellow practicers of the craft? Of gathering in sacred circles and showing up as your truest, most magical self? Of attending “witchcraft school” at an enchanting Irish castle?


If so, this Samhain retreat is for you.


Magical soul, you are invited to attend this 6-day, 5-night witchcraft retreat in beautiful Northern Ireland.


Together we will celebrate the pagan festival of Samhain, traditionally regarded as the start of winter (and the new year) according to the Celtic calendar.


During this week together we will gather in sacred circles, join our magic for group rituals and spells, connect with the land, build ancestral altars, broaden our magical understandings and abilities through witchy workshops, sit down for a festive Samhain feast, and — most importantly — claim and celebrate our power as witches.


This retreat will take place from October 28th - November 2, 2025 at a historic castle in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland.

About your organizer

My name is Celeste, and I am a practitioner of earth-based and ancestral spirituality and magic. In simpler terms, I am a pagan witch. I am also a writer, ritualist, and facilitator of witchcraft retreats, courses, and workshops. At the core of my spiritual and magical practices is devotion — devotion to the land I live on, to the spirits I work with, to the gods I worship, to my ancestors, and to my highest self and my soul purpose.⁣⁣ Trance journeying, spirit communication, and divination are foundational aspects of my practice.
