Festival Program

The "Knights of Jerusalem — Bobe Mayses" festival will run from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Admission is divided into three capsules to manage visitor flow; the program is identical in each capsule.

The Grand Knights' Tournament in plate armor runs continuously throughout the day: 9:00 AM–6:00 PM.

icon Equestrian shows take place twice in each capsule:

  • 10:00 AM and 11:00 AM
  • 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM
  • 3:30 PM and 4:30 PM

icon Attractions and workshops run continuously throughout the festival (9:00 AM–6:00 PM): ceramics, sculpting, mosaics, stained glass, flatbread baking, archery, crossbows for the youngest children, fencing, catapult, dart throwing, and clay cutting.

Most workshops are intended for children aged 5–12, but adults are also welcome to try archery, clay cutting, and HEMA fencing.

icon The music and dance stage features La Danza Moresca, Vochi Celesti, Reneidance, and Northwinds. Their program repeats in each capsule. Leo’s marionette puppet theatre, mimes, clowns, and street musicians also roam the festival grounds.

icon A large Viking camp filled with games and workshops awaits you, along with a Minecraft-inspired quest.
