Medieval Festival - Tewkesbury RFC

The site is ideal for visiting Tewkesbury Medieval Festival which has been the high light of Tewkesbury’s summer since 1983. It’s now regarded as one of the largest free medieval gathering of its kind, attracting re-enactors, traders, entertainers, and visitors from all over the world. Its central feature is a spectacular re-enactment of the Battle of Tewkesbury.

The festival features a wide range of entertainment, including music, dance and drama as well as collection of fascinating characters from the past.

There is a children’s activity area, with period based arts and craft sessions, and an exhibition tent with displays from organisations specialising in various aspects of history. The busy and colourful medieval market has everything from a suit of armour or a fabulous gown, to pot of herbs or bag of sweets. There are also associated events in the town, which is decorated with authentic medieval banners for the festival period.

Entry to Tewkesbury Medieval Festival is free.
