Hear ye! Hear ye! Lords, ladies, fools, and friends – don thy burlap and hath no fear, the city’s most eccentric weekend is almost here. This August, get in character and stay in character for an event unlike anything else – the Calgary Medieval Faire & Artisan Market!
From August 20th until the 22nd, historians, fantasy fans, and fun-seekers will be encouraged to fully immerse themselves into the 13th, 14th, and 15th centuries, a time long before toothbrushes, sliced bread, and light switches.
From jousts and jugglers to turkey legs and armour, live out your every Princess Bride, Knights Tale -inspired dream, mix, mingle and make some memories all while brushing shoulders with royalty and squires alike.
