Come and join us for the Ildhafn summer event
This year we are out on campaign with a camping event in an orchard in West Auckland.
Bring your tent and camp with us for a day of baronial championship tournaments and arts and sciences.
There is plenty of outdoor space well away from the road and neighbouring houses. As this will be the first event held here, we are only getting started for hosting medieval events so while it doesn’t have the same facilities that Braithwaite Manor has, we will hold a discussion on what would make it a great site.
There is limited seating on-site so please bring something to sit on if you have it.
If you have a large tent, please contact the stewards so we can plan the site layout
On the Saturday, we will hold the heavy tournament in the morning, rapier tournament in the afternoon, and an archery tournament.
The Lady Mathilde is planning food for the event
Dates: 20-22 November
If the weather is unfavourable then we will hold the event a week later
