But no, just a couple of hundred people randomly milling about, and kids playing!
You're right, that wouldn't have been what the druids (or whatever they were) would have wanted at all. Bang on your drum, drink yourself senseless, grab the magic mushrooms, slaughter a dozen cows, light a fire to cook them on, and have an orgy. Now that's what they'd have called a religious festival.
"Nice party, Ogg, sorry about the virgins. Same time next year?"
