Notes: I am not responsible for the content of these events. I don't always know about changes or cancellations - tbc means to be confirmed. Contact event organisers directly if you have questions. I generally list things in the UK, especially in or near London as well as festivals and conferences further afield and some online things outside that time zone. Where a practitioner is offering information about magical wellbeing and healing, this is *not* medical advice.
