A meet and greet programme will be in place for those attending their first convention or unaccompanied.

* Damh the Bard - Our favourite Druid upbeat spiritual songs to enrich the senses and feed the soul
* Harmonic Concordance (The London Pagan Choir) - Melodic chants and beautiful lyrics, singing from the gallery in the lunch break hours
