6 - 7 JULY - Abbey Medieval Festival
Australia’s Largest Living History Medieval Festival since 1989, with over 20,000 visitors to the Moreton Bay Region.
“Absolutely fantastic, an experience that is both engaging and enchanting as you get to go back in time to see how people.lived in the middle ages, witness battle re-enactment, talk to makers doing things the way they were 1000 years ago and watch the magic happen, and even snag a piece of history or two if you so choose. We loved making our costumes and interacting with all of the different displays. Next year, we hope to be part of one of the groups rather than a spectator. I hope this festival never stops happening.”
