Come and join in for a soulful and celebratory day at Bridget’s Thatched Cottage at Drummany Spirit, Cavan on Sunday 2nd February 2025 from 12 to 6pm as they honour the timeless spirit of St Brigid and the ancient Celtic festival of Imbolc.
They are celebrating the reopening of Bridget’s thatched cottage after FORTY years!
After 40 years of quiet anticipation the heart of Bridget’s thatched cottage is reborn, reigniting its warmth and spirit in a beautifully restored hearth. This year we will gather to celebrate Lá Fhéile Bríde & Imbolc in the lovingly restored cottage, where the fire that once brought love and warmth to many will be rekindled in a special ceremony “Reigniting the Flame”. The cottage which has been thoughtfully restored with care and respect for tradition, will once again become a sacred space where community connection and new beginnings can blossom. As the flames dance in the hearth of the cottage, the reigniting ceremony will bring together the energies of the past and present. Through ritual, song, dance and shared stories, we will celebrate not just Bridget who lived here with her brother Paddy & cousin Jim but a new chapter, a symbol of renewal, growth and projection. The heart of the fire reminds us that like the Thatched Cottage, we too can be restored and renewed no matter the years that have passed.
Activities on the day will include St Brigid’s Cross Workshop, Music, Sean Nos Dance, Stories, Song and Refreshments.
