REGISTRATION IS OPEN FOR THE 2026 SACRED SPACE AND BETWEEN THE WORLDS CONFERENCE
On February 19-22, 2026, we will bring together Sacred Space and the Between The Worlds conferences into a joint event at The Hotel at the University of Maryland in College Park, Maryland. In 2015 and 2023, the two organizations presented successful collaborative conferences, and we look forward to doing so again. As Contemporary Paganism matures, we hope to provide a model for ways in which organizations can look for synergies and undertake cooperative initiatives. The Sacred Space Conference is the premier annual esoteric conference on the East Coast for intermediate to advanced practitioners. Meeting in the Washington, DC/Baltimore area, each year our featured teachers and a host of highly qualified regional teachers offer a wide variety of workshops and rituals developed for a more advanced audience. Our attendees tell us that they are particularly grateful for the opportunity to pursue their continuous development in the company of their peers across many magickal traditions.
The Between The Worlds Conference serves a similar audience but is offered at particular intervals aligned with specific astrological events. The 2026 conference is aligned to the Saturn-Neptune conjunction in the first degree of Aries. The Between the Worlds Conference always includes a main ritual that is designed to address an important magical need, and the plenary sessions also discuss significant and timely topics.
