Historical costume re enactment festival

We started doing some re enactments back in 2014 for European Open Heritage Days, then in 2017 we held a whole weekend of multi period re enactments. We ran the event again in 2018, but had to move our dates and could not manage to run during 2019. We are hoping that we will be able to run the event again in 2020 if we can get a weekend available during the summer.
