Hazzah! The Barossa Medieval Fair is returning for 2022, welcoming close to 20 groups, associations, and medieval clubs from across Australia. Self-described as the largest reenactor event/fair in South Australia, this will be something you won’t want to miss.

Kicking off on Saturday 20 August, lords and ladies will be stepping back through history to a time of knights, round tables, feasts, and chainmail armor.

While the full line-up of stalls and activities for the Barossa Medieval Fair has yet to be announced, the stalls they’ve announced so far sound unique and exciting. 

One new stallholder includes Oh Deer Jerky. Coming straight from the Kings Forest, this will be the first time Deer Jerky will make an appearance.

Saturday’s festivities will occur between 10:00am – 4:00pm, then from 6:30pm a Medieval Feast will take over The Lord Lyndoch. Fill your plates with mountains of delicious cheeses, slow roasted meats, vegetables, breads, fruit, and soups.

Sunday 21 August will be another day of medieval fun! If you want to live your ultimate Lost Kingdom fantasies, come and support the traders, groups, reenactors and artisans at this fantastic event.

The 2022 Medieval Fair is also the official host for a new and exciting international sporting event! After a significant amount of work from Warhounds Armoured Combat, fully-armoured warriors can now wield their swords, maces, axes, and polearms in an epic battle.

The SA Buhurt Cup will be the first of its kind in Australia, attracting combatants from across the country to partake in this extraordinary event of full contact medieval combat.

The fair is hoping to attract around 200 fighters, with major prize money available for both male and female tournaments.

Tickets for the Barossa Medieval Fair will go on sale on Tuesday 31 May. Starting from only $19.00 per adult, the event remains to be a fun, affordable family-friendly event.

Tickets can be found here.
