The Ildhafn Summer Event - our annual camping event.
Bonfires, dancing, fencing, music, archery - what more could make a wonderful weekend?
It will be a fully-catered event, with accommodation, from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon.
The majority of the "usual" activities will happen: fencing, archery, armoured combat, maybe Arts and Sciences classes. Saturday evening there will be a sumptuous feast prepared by Lady Isabell to be followed by dancing and merriment.

Dates and times
Friday November 30th to Sunday December 2nd, 2018.
Opening and closing times
The event opens at 5:30pm on Friday (4:30 for those setting up). Please don't arrive early - another group may be still there.
The event finishes immediately after lunch on Sunday, at around 1pm. We'll clean up and clear out straight away - plan to be gone by 2pm.
Historical costume is optional on Friday, necessary on Saturday and Sunday.
Site
The event site is at Hunua Falls Camp (203 Falls Road, Hunua, Auckland). It's an extremely well-appointed, well-maintained campsite, with a large hall, plentiful accommodation, good facilities for SCA use, and beautiful and extensive grounds. If you were at May Crown in 2015 or St Catherine's Faire last year, we enjoyed the site so much that we're using it again. More details are available on the dedicated site information page.
