Welcome! We are so excited you want to join us for
Pleasures of Beltane from April 30 - May 4, 2026
The fourth Pleasures of Beltane camp will be taking place from April 30 - May 4, 2026
All teachers and campers are expected to attend the entire event from Thursday afternoon to Monday afternoon. You must be 18+ years of age to attend and have taken Reclaiming Elements of Magic or equivalent classes. This is a Covid Cautious event and participants will be required to take precautions in the week leading up to camp including masking, testing and limiting exposures 🪄
Registration Process
Because of the nature of this camp, the registration process has to be a little more involved than simply filling out a short form and sending in a deposit. Everyone's safety and comfort is of primary concern.
There is a rather detailed application form here for you to fill out. This form is a way for us to get to know about you. This form is confidential and encrypted and will only be shared among the camp organizers. The form is through Jotform which has a number of built in accessibility features and should work well with screen readers. You will have the option to save your drafts before submitting the form. Saving the form will require you to sign up with Jotform. If filling out the application form isn't accessible to you in this way please reach out to us at pleasuresofbeltane@gmail.com and we will sort out an alternative option.
After the form is submitted, you will hear from us within seven days. If you are a new camper, we will set you up for an interview with two of the organizers. This will be an opportunity for us to learn more about each other, and answer any questions you may have. If you are a returning camper, you may skip the interview if you wish, or sign up just to say hi or ask any questions.
After being accepted as a camper, all applicants will be asked for a non-refundable deposit of $100 (unless paying less than this to attend camp) within 7 days to hold your space. You are welcome to pay the remainder of your camp fees in a lump sum or installments, with the final payment due by March 1, 2026.
Camp Size is small! We are limiting the total population of camp to 50 people, including organizers and teachers. Get your application in as soon as you can!
Camp Costs
The sliding scale cost for attending camp is $525-1,350 USD. A limited number of lower cost spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis. In answering the financial questions below, please be intentional in considering your financial situation and what you are able to pay. Know that your generosity will make it easier for your fellow campers to attend. We will never ask you for any information or proof about your financial situation. We trust you know what you are able to pay.
We openly acknowledge that Reclaiming is a majority-white and often ableist community and seek to change this, knowing systemic change is never quick or easy. One of the steps we have taken towards this is to have a two-tiered registration process. Registration will open first for both ableism-impacted/disabled community members and BIPOC*/PGM** community members.
We recognize that the impacts of systemic oppression often mean these members of our communities are more likely to face financial scarcity. It is our hope that in offering early registration and first chance at our lower cost spots more of our community members impacted in this way will be able to attend POB.
This is only one step in making POB more accessible and it is our hope that in co-creating a welcoming environment throughout camp and beyond, Pleasures of Beltane may continue to bring magical pleasure to the widest variety of witches on our vast and varied Earth!
*BIPOC - Black, Indigenous, and other people of color
**PGM - People of the Global Majority
🪄Please be aware that in order to attend Pleasures of Beltane, you will need to have taken the Elements of Magic class or equivalent.
Pleasures of Beltane will be offering an Elements of Magic on-line on Saturdays from 10-12:30pm PT Feb 7 - March 14th, 2026. This class will be co-taught by organizers and guests and offered as a fundraiser for camp, as well as an opportunity for any campers that need to take EoM before camp. We will post registration details here for the class once they are available.
