DFW Pagan Unity Fest turns 10! Free Fest, Witchy Vibes, And Raffle Prizes That Won’t Hex Your Wallet

Ten years of spark, craft, and community converge in Arlington, Texas. I sat down with Kacie from Kacie’s Corner to share everything you need to know about the 10th annual DFW Pagan Unity Fest. From a full day of vendors and hands-on learning to a public Yule ritual and a charity raffle for the North Texas Food Bank, this milestone gathering shows how modern pagan community thrives when service, celebration, and storytelling come together.

We walk through the schedule so you can plan your day: a free festival on Saturday, November 8, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., at 2001 California Lane on the UU church grounds. Expect returning favorites and new artisans, including holistic healers and regional artists, plus the final appearance of a beloved vendor, Venus 6 Gallery. Classes in the Grove run 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., opening with Harvest in Gratitude by Jennifer Culver and closing with Kacie’s Webs of Community workshop focused on building real, resilient connections. At 3 p.m., Jormungandholl DFW leads a community Yule ritual right in Vendors Village, bringing intention and warmth to the heart of the fest.

We also spotlight the annual raffle that turns shared excitement into direct impact. Vendors donate prizes, we’re adding a spell box to the pool, and every ticket supports the North Texas Food Bank, which serves both the Dallas–Fort Worth metro area and surrounding rural communities. You’ll also hear about the new Community Corner co-sponsored by Kacie’s Corner and Your Average Witch, where you can drop in, make simple crafts, and meet people without pressure. If you’re local, this is your invitation to experience the region’s largest pagan community day firsthand; if you’re visiting, it’s a welcoming entry point into DFW’s vibrant scene.

Welcome back to Your Average Witch, where every other Tuesday, or kind of whenever I feel like it, apparently, we talk about witch life, witch stories, and sometimes a little witchcraft. And this week I am talking with Kacie about the Pagan Unity Fest. Kacie's from Kacie's Corner. You've heard her on the podcast multiple times before. And while I am not coming back still until December, I did want to give you a little heads up about an event happening in Dallas. And here's Kacie. Hello, Kacie. Welcome to the show again.

Kacie: 0:39

Hi. Thanks for having me stop by your uh little podcast corner of the world, Kim. Hey y'all.  I'm Kacie, as she said, host of Kacie's Corner and community coordinator for the DFW Pagan Unity Fest, and I just wanted to stop by to invite y'all out to our 10-year anniversary celebration. The 10th annual DFW Pagan Unity Fest 2025 will be held on Saturday, November 8th from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 2001 California Lane, Arlington, Texas. It's on the UU church grounds. For 10 years, this free event has invited out the Dallas-Fort Worth area's most talented artisans, craftspeople, vendors, and performers out for a day of community building and spiritual connection. This year we are celebrating our very special anniversary in a big way with the return of some of our longtime vendors, like event sponsors, Artio Artisanals, and new friends like Ancient Ways of Healing and Holistic Practices. We'll also have the final appearance of longtime regional vendor and artist Venus 6 Gallery. We're hosting classes in the Grove from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., starting with Harvest in Gratitude by Jennifer Culver and wrapping up with my own Webs of Community workshop, where we will work together to create our own webs of community magic. At 3 p.m., our community ritual celebrating Yule will begin in Vendors Village and hosted by Jormungandholl DFW. After that, we'll close out the day with our annual charity raffle at the welcome booth. Each year, our vendors donate items to be raffled off via our end-of-day ticket drawing at 4 p.m. All proceeds are donated to our community's chosen charity, and this year we are hoping to make it our biggest year fundraising for the North Texas Food Bank. This event is free to the community, so come on out to Arlington, Texas this Saturday, November 8th, for the 10th annual DFW Pagan Unity Fest. You can visit our Facebook page, facebook.com/DFWPaganUnityFest to find out more about what surprises our Yule Fairy and the rest of her friends on the organizing committee have in store for this year's guests.
