having the simple, low-barrier-for-entry stuff for the 'normies' to do (browsing merch, buying a LARP sword and joining a battle orchestrated by a LARP veteran, watching a concert, joining a balfolk workshop, etc.) lets them acclimatise and learn the rules by observation w/o needing much handholding

When dust, sun and balfolk meet at Castlefest...

@castlefest.bsky.social #balfolk #photography #castlefest2026
Sihouettes of balfolk dancers in the foreground, softened by flying dust. In the back, low the sun, as white ball, colours radiating outwards to yellow, orange, brown. The scene looks outlandish, desert like.

Waren auf einem wunderbaren Balfolk in der Lutherkirche in Köln, wo zu kurdischer Musik bretonische und kurdische Tänze getanzt wurden, das hat so viel Spaß gemacht. ❤️‍🔥

Wir haben im Dezember beim Balfolk endlich die Mazurka gelernt und im Januar mussten wir noch dauernd "Ma-zur-ka-1-2-3" flüstern, um im Takt zu bleiben, und heute haben wir die Mazurka GE-SLAYT.
