Wassail !Silhill Morris held our first Wassail in January 2025 at Henley-in-Arden Station Bar with guest Morris sides Belle D'Vain, Aefgythe and White Hart. As well as lots of dancing we had singing and audience participation. We performed traditional customs to help ensure a good harvest, making a lot of noise to scare away bad spirits, (including firing a musket) and placing cider-soaked toast in the branches to attract good ones . We finished up with a music and song session in the bar. We will repeat the event in 2026 with a similar format.
