Hark! Hear the Praise of Noble and Peasant alike…
His favourite was getting to battle (and beat!) knights himself!
What an incredible day! My son and I had SO MUCH FUN! From bubble blowing for what felt like hours, to geode squashing, watching real live knights fight it out, and getting a new favourite play sword, we both had a great time, and there was lots of interesting things for me to look at, shop and browse.

I really enjoyed seeing other adults in costume, there were some elves and wizards too!
What an awesome event! Tons of activities for kids and families, live battles, great storytelling, and amazing vendors.
Great vendors, great atmosphere and amazing energy!!
