Beltane Fire Festival is an annual participatory arts event and ritual drama, held on 30 April on Calton Hill in Edinburgh.
==Historical background==
(詳細はGaelic festival of Beltane which began on the evening before 1 May and marked the beginning of summer.〔MacKillop, James (1998) ''A Dictionary of Celtic Mythology''. Oxford, Oxford University Press. ISBN 0-19-280120-1 pp.39, 400-402, 421〕〔Dames, Michael (1992) ''Mythic Ireland''. London, Thames & Hudson ISBN 0-500-27872-5. p.206-10〕〔McNeill, F. Marian (1959) ''The Silver Bough'', Vol. 2. William MacLellan, Glasgow ISBN 0-85335-162-7 p.56〕 The modern festival was started in 1988 by a small group of enthusiasts including the musical collective Test Dept, with academic support from the School of Scottish Studies at the University of Edinburgh. Since then the festival has grown, and now involves over 300 voluntary collaborators and performers with available tickets often selling out.
While the festival draws on a variety of historical, mythological and literary influences, the organisers do not claim it to be anything other than ''a modern celebration of Beltane'', evolving with its participants.〔(Beltane Fire Society ) - Official event website〕
