May 2 – May Revels at the National Cathedral

Oran-May---low-res

Celebrate Spring with Washington Revels at the 2015 Flower Mart, sponsored by the National Cathedral All Hallows Guild!

We will once again “bring in the May” as part of the annual All Hallows Guild Flower Mart – a popular two-day festival since 1939. DC’s favorite spring outdoor family event features plants, herbs, food, puppet shows, carousel rides, boutiques and entertainment for the whole family. We will present a one-hour show celebrating Spring with traditional songs and dances, the crowning of a May Queen, Maypole dancing, a festive procession with colorful banners, children’s singing games, and a little bit of Irish song to recall our 2014 Christmas show. And of course, there will be lots of opportunities for audience participation.

DATE/TIME: Saturday, May 2, 10:00am – 5:00pm (May Revels at 4:00pm)
TICKETS: Free and open to the public
LOCATION: Washington National Cathedral, Massachusetts and Wisconsin Avenues, NW <directions>
