About the event

Join us for an immersive Medieval weekend at Brockholes as our visitor village is transformed into a Norman encampment with stalls displaying Norman artifacts, fashion, weaponry and much more!

We will be joined throughout the weekend by the Historia Normannis re-enactment group who will be bringing our theme to life through live demonstrations and authentic Norman clothing. 

Our Medieval Armour Workshop is a fantastic opportunity to meet our Norman warriors for an immersive session where you can learn all about Norman arms and armour, learn how to dress as a Medieval Knight and watch a live re-enactment of a Norman battle! 

Ticket Price £5.99 per child, tickets include:

  • Access to the interactive presentation on Norman arms and armour.
  • Demo of how to dress as a real knight.
  • Access to Norman battle re-enactment.
  • Each child receives their own Knight's sword to keep!

*Adult spectator tickets are free but must be booked additionally to any child's ticket as we have limited capacity for this event. 

Sessions are 1-hour long and we will be running two sessions on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th August at 11am and 12:30pm.
