This event will be a timeline event with the re-enactment of the
Battle of Hastings of 1066 as the main focus. There will
(tentatively) be a Hastings re-enactment battle on both Saturday and
Sunday. However, groups that re-enact other timeframes and events are
encouraged to come and set up demonstration areas as well. We are
allowing steel re-enactment swords for the battle, but attendees
should contact us regarding armor and clothing requirements. All
participants are welcome to camp over night. Please contact us with
any inquiries about bringing horses on the site.

Medieval Faire is open to the public from 11 AM to 5 PM both days.
There will be a battle reenactment and smaller demonstrations of
various sorts throughout the day. The individual historical camps
will have their own living history displays as well.
