Festivalgoers will be transported back in time to a land filled
with swords, knights, horses and lances at Blacktown City
Festival’s Medieval Fayre.
The Blacktown City Medieval Fayre will transform Nurragingy
Reserve on Saturday and Sunday, 18 - 20 May.
“More than 80,000 people are expected to attend the event
and get a rare insight into the world of lords, ladies, dames
and knights,” Blacktown City Mayor Stephen Bali MP said.
“Nurragingy Reserve will be taken back to the dark ages over
two days with numerous events throughout the day,” Mayor
Bali said.
“There will be roving entertainment, free camel and pony
rides, armour displays, handmade arts and crafts, a working
blacksmith hut and the highlight of the event, a jousting
competition with competitors from across Australia.”
Following the success of the inaugural Medieval banquet in
2018, it will be returning bigger and better on Saturday, 18
May.
“There is no better way to follow up a jousting
competition than by attending a Medieval Banquet offering
an authentic experience,” Mayor Bali said.
“We want all diners to be dressed in theme so they can truly
revel in the experience of dining on medieval food and drinks
while taking part in various activities throughout the night.”
