Barnet Medieval Festival

Saturday 11 June 2022 and Sunday 12 June 10.30am - 5.00pm

Knights on horseback are to feature for the first time in military re-enactments at the fourth annual Barnet Medieval Festival to be held in mid-June at the Byng Road playing fields. 

Staging mounted combat will be a spectacular addition to what is rapidly being recognised as the leading medieval festival in London and south-east of England, attracting military re-enactors from across the country.

Re-enactments of the 1461 Battle of St Albans and the 1471 Battle of Barnet will be the highlight on both days of the two-day festival – Saturday 11 June and Sunday 12 June – which is again expected to attract over 300 medieval re-enactors and traders.

Dr Susan Skedd, festival director, says the re-enactors, who are co-ordinated by the House of Bayard and the Wars of the Roses Federation, are hoping to bring four of perhaps five knights on horseback.
