Please remember this is not an SCA Event. It is hosted by another non profit group. We are one of several other re-enactors. History Fest: https://historyfestmankato.com/index.html
We will be set up in a slightly different spot this year due to the flooding. We will be west of our previous location on the same side of the road.
Join us any time during the week that you can. Just let us know. If not coming right away in the morning, be cautious of the buses on the road. You may need to park in the upper meadow and walk down. They block the roads once the kids arrive.
Dates/Times
Wednesday through Friday from 9:00 to 3:00, Open to schools, home schools, etc
Saturday from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM Open to the public.
Plan to arrive by 8AM. The schools start to arrive by 8:30 and we need to be set up and cars moved by then. It’s very difficult to move your car to the upper meadow by the shire sheds once the buses are on the road. There is usually parking down near our area. Let the people at the gate know you’re with the medieval group.
