Mediaeval Spectacular

Running throughout the August Bank Holiday weekend from 10am to 5pm, visitors can enjoy a rare taste of Mediaeval life.

Living history encampments will transport visitors back in time with Minstrels, jousting, a barber surgeon – not for the faint hearted – puppet show and a Mediaeval market among the highlights.

Visitors will have the opportunity to meet characters from the past such as the Archer, the Alchemist, Falconer and Nun. Plus watch axe-wielding warriors in action and superb real jousting competitions take place before your very eyes.

There will be live period music from our Minstrels and a succulent hog roast delivering an authentic taste of Mediaeval life, plus lots of interaction with our medieval characters.

Entry to Mediaeval Spectacular is included in the regular Pensthorpe admission price which also includes access to WildRootz; the new outdoor activity development to connect children with the natural world.
