This year the event will focus on tournament fighting rather than our tradition of melee fights.
We will feature a variety of fun-focused tournaments throughout the day concluding with our traditional tavern brawl. We will have bear pits, a novice tourney, mixed weapons tourneys, and more!

Tavern Brawl
The tavern brawl is one of the highlights of the day. For the armored tavern brawl, no weapons are allowed into the “tavern”. All combatants must disguise their weaponry. Shtick is encouraged and many participants design full costumes and disguises for the duration of the fighting.
