The event is being held in the Central Highlands of Victoria, just one hour out of Melbourne and will offer visitors the opportunity to see “spectacular jousting knights, ferocious Vikings, birds of prey and more”.
Visitors of all ages are invited to step back in time and enter the Festival’s living medieval village, for an immersive experience brought to life by over 150 talented re-enactors from around Australia.
General Manager Bart Hamilton says the new festival will recreate life as it was in the Middle Ages and shares “this festival promises to be an experience like no other. It is a unique and amazing family experience, featuring the clash of swords, the thunder of hooves and the smashing of lances.
