Join Dr Mark Hutchinson on the 23rd March at 7pm to explore the world of Medieval Feasts and Festivities.In this accessible talk we will look into how feasts and festivities at Glastonbury Abbey blended the sacred with the celebratory, as pilgrims and people alike converged on the town.
While some came in search of spiritual enlightenment or to marvel at the holy relics, many were equally drawn by the promise of hearty banquets, music, and the lively atmosphere that transformed the abbey and town into a hub of devotion and merriment.
These gatherings often blurred the line between reverence and revelry, with processions and prayers giving way to laughter and song, underscoring the peculiar charm and contradictions that defined Glastonbury’s enduring legend.
