Wanaka Medieval Festival

A slice of medieval village life will be brought to Wanaka when the showgrounds will play host to iron-clad warriors clashing their longswords, knights on horseback displaying their skill-at-arms, period musicians and dancers, street performers and puppeteers.
There will be archery, games, crafts and a market with children’s armour and costumes, chain maille, arrow making, and much, much more.Whether you are a seasoned re-enactor or looking for a unique and fun day out for the family, the Wanaka Medieval Festival has something for you.

To make the most of your medieval experience, we’d love you to come dressed in period costume.
