Noson Galan Gaeaf, which means 'Winter's Eve', is an 'Ysbrydnos' or 'Spirit Night', a time when spirits can roam the world of the living.

The Celtic calendar divided the year into a light half and a dark half.

Welsh storytellers and myth makers, The Ragged Storytelling Collective will be fusing together modern myths and Welsh folk music in an unforgettable performance, Binderella.
