Roma Aeterna - Gathering of the Legions
#31
Salvete, Roma aeterna vobis salutem dicit .
We have the pleasure to inform you that another day has been added to the VADIS AL MAXIMO revival of the Roman Empire. The event that will be held in Rome, Italy, will take place the days 15, 16, 17, 18 October 2009. The calendar of the event is still not complete but we can anticipate that will have an opening ceremony Thursday October 15 evening, followed by on Friday morning quadriga’s training sessions, races and war displays in the afternoon, gladiators and races again at night. With finals on Sunday the event will arrive at the closing of the games in the evening.
To complement the First Gladiator Maximus Trophy, we have added the Legionis Romane competition where the participant legions will show marching and battle techniques. Best show and costumes will gain substantial cash prices.
In order to participate at this event and their benefit packages, the participating legionnaires and gladiators groups will have to submit us a short video of their performance for evaluation purposes. Videos and pictures to be sent to: [email protected] . A group of experts in Roman History will analyze them in order to establish the programming.
It is imperative that we receive the material before the end of March 2009.
A Castrum Romanum will be prepared for those legionnaires and families that they do not want to go to hotels. This accommodation will be considerably less expensive but we do need an early reservation. The Castrum will have also a Roman Taberna with restaurant service.
We are still working with travel agencies in order to present you discount packages including airfare, hotel and tickets.
Our web site www.vadisalmaximo.com , will reflect all this information in the next few days.
Thank You

Sorry, I did not mean you, I meant the Gods.

Hi, hopefully we will be able to have some updates in a couple of weeks. We had some addition to the program that will have an opening ceremony etcetera, probably we will have to change the dates in accordance with city requirements to be disclosed.
Stay tuned.

Is this still happening? Seems to have gone very quiet on here and the website hasn't been updated for ages.

A few of us are looking at booking flights to come and watch but can't do anything until the dates are confirmed.

Indeed!

Am i right in thinking you were going along to take part? We were going to watch to see if it was worth considering for future years, but if they can't sort things at this late hour.....

....we'll see.

Yes, i am getting to the point where it may be too late to make any schedule changes for this if we don't have any conformation soon.
I enjoyed it last year, and would like to be part of something bigger there, but will only get there if we know soon. :roll:
