There will also be a chance to meet larger-than-life characters and wander the history village to learn more about medieval life.

For youngsters there will be a chance to enjoy their own mini festival in the Children’s Kingdom. Activities include archery, face and wound painting, pelt the peasant, sword school and a bouncy castle.

There will also be plenty of food on offer.
