  • The Horn Dance
    Mar 3 2026

    In todays swirling and twirling episode we explore one of the oldest traditions in England, the Abbott's Bromley Horn Dance.


    At nearly 800 years old and counting this is an extraordinary piece of living folklore, bursting with myth and legend we plunge right into the heart of the dance, exploring its history and standing today from those that live and breath it.


    Come, bring bells, join us as we dance a round and sing merrily to the old Gods.


    Enjoy!
