The Druid Grove of Bega were among the many faces who attended the unique and historic revival of the Penzance May Horns Beltane celebration on May 4th 2008. The celebration was banned by Penzance Town Council in 1933 for being too rowdy! Lets hope it is better received this time around?

Below is a selection of photographs of the event taken by Grove members Alex Langstone and Paul Atlas-Saunders.
