From 25. May until 01 June 2008 the Community of Tholey in Saarland, South-West Germany will host the Roman Weeks. Unfortunately a detailed program is not yet available. But I can tell you of a highlight:
On Saturday, 31. May 2008 the gladiators of the troupe LVDVS NEMESIS will fight at four restaurants in Tholey. These restaurants offer Roman dishes during the Roman Weeks and the gladiators will surely spice up the banquett (as it used to happen more than 2000 years ago in the Campania).
On Sunday, 01. June 2008 there is a festival at the excavation site of the Roman vicus Wareswald. Some merchants will be there and the highlight will be again the gladiators of LVDVS NEMESIS.
Unfortunately there are no English webistes available, neither of the Community of Tholey nor of the Excavation Project, but for those who speak German they could get some information on the Wareswald Excavation here:
