About Abbey Medieval Festival 2025
Embark on a pilgrimage this year to Abbeystowe, the enchanting host of the Abbey Medieval Festival, offering a captivating journey through a thousand years of history. Immerse yourself in an authentic and spellbinding experience suitable for the entire family!
To make the most of your weekend, we recommend carefully planning your day, ensuring you optimise your time and fully enjoy the diverse array of activities available. Central to the Abbey Medieval Festival are the dedicated reenactors, whose commitment, passion, and proficiency in various medieval pursuits promises to unveil a wholly immersive experience.
Throughout the weekend indulge in the thrills of jousting, be captivated by the fighting displays and oil wrestlers, engage in archery, and get up close to medieval animals. You’ll also have the opportunity to participate in workshops and be amazed by the skills and craftsmanship by the demonstrations and presentations. Be sure not to overlook the spectacle of the cannon fire and dramatic main arena performances. If that is not enough for you, the Festival will also feature talented musicians, jesters, jugglers and street performers.
Take a step back in time as you navigate the bustling Medieval marketplace, filled with the sights, smells, and sounds of a bygone era. This is just a glimpse of the rich experience waiting for you. And let’s not forget the diverse culinary offerings spanning various cultures and traditions – come prepared to feast!
Don’t miss out on securing your tickets for the Moreton Bay Joust Championship, as they tend to sell out quickly and are a regular highlight for good reasons.
