Festival of nature, spirituality, and Celtic culture in Taupont
The Ritualenn Festival is a unique event dedicated to nature, spirituality, crafts, and Celtic culture, organized at Manoir Morgan in Taupont, in the heart of the Brocéliande region in Morbihan. The Ritualenn association offers several themed editions per year, aligned with the Celtic calendar festivals: Samhain, Yule (winter solstice), Beltane, and others. Each edition features a market of artisan exhibitors, workshops (herbalism, tarot, witchcraft), musical performances, storytelling, and a ritual celebration around a fire.
The Festival Ritualenn is a singular event that celebrates the Celtic calendar festivals in the heart of the Brocéliande region. Located at the Manoir Morgan in Taupont, a few kilometers from the legendary Brocéliande forest, the festival offers themed gatherings linked to the major moments of the Celtic annual cycle: Samhain (November 1st), Yule (winter solstice), Beltane (May 1st), and other traditional festivals.
Each edition of the Ritualenn Festival hosts about twenty artisan exhibitors for a two-day market. Handmade jewelry, natural candles, medicinal herbs, crystals, wooden objects, textiles, and artistic creations inspired by nature and Celtic traditions are presented by passionate artisans. This market is an opportunity to discover authentic craftsmanship and find unique pieces.
The festival offers themed workshops related to the celebrated season: winter or spring herbalism, tarot readings, traditional witchcraft workshops, and tattoos done on-site. These workshops, led by experienced practitioners, allow visitors to reconnect with ancestral practices related to nature and seasonal cycles.
Each edition is punctuated by musical performances (violin, Celtic harp, traditional songs) and storytelling sessions highlighting winter or summer myths and legends depending on the season. The highlight of each festival is the ritual celebration around the fire, a moment of communion where participants gather to honor the passage of the seasons in the Celtic tradition.
The Manoir Morgan, located in Taupont at the gates of the Brocéliande forest, offers a magical and enchanting setting for the festival. This place, steeped in history and mystery, is perfectly suited for celebrating Celtic festivals, amidst ancient stones and preserved nature. The proximity to the legendary sites of Brocéliande (Val sans Retour, Barenton fountain, Merlin's tomb) adds a mythical dimension to the event.
