Medieval Spring Faire

PosterSaturday, March 28, 2009

Goode gentles alle! Be thou humbly welcomed to the grandest spectacle and entertainment in the land!

This spring, their Highnesses of Tir Righ invite the good people of their principality to join them in hosting a grand Medieval Spring Faire. The Faire will showcase all that is great and wonderful in our Principality, and indeed, in our Society as a whole. The purpose of this marvelous endeavour is to show the good people of the modern world all that our wond’rous Society has to offer, and to entice the mundane populace to join us in our pursuit of historical re-enactment, our community of fellowship, and our quest for The Dream.

You are invited to participate in this epic event in a variety of ways. First, as this is an Event, as well as a Demo, all are welcome to come and share in the merriment and festivities!

This event will showcase the many talents of our populace and we encourage you to bring both completed projects for display and use, as well as projects in progress which you can demonstrate to the modern public. We require spinners, blacksmiths, leatherworkers, wood carvers, tailors and seamstresses, potters, embroiderers, cooks, scribes, and craftspeople of all sorts!

We wish to show the types of activities we re-create, so the call is also put forth to dancers, fighters both heavy and rapier, archers, heralds, and bards who imbue all our events with such colour and energy.

A bustling marketplace contributes to the ambiance and success of every event, so we also request the presence of the many merchants of the realm! Come, display your finest, hawk your wares, and show the many goodes we have to offer.

There will be no fee for this event – the revenue we gather will be measured in new memberships, and smiling faces.

The event takes place at the Kelowna Campus of the Okanagan College, located at 1000 KLO Road, Kelowna, BC. Event runs 10am to 5pm with a revel to follow. Site opens at 9am and closes at 10pm.
