This Year’s 21st Anniversary Scenario - Scottish vs. English. Step into the year 1333, where thundering hooves and clashing steel echo across the Scottish borders! This season, the Sarasota Medieval Fair brings history to life with the legendary Battle of Halidon Hill. Amidst royal rivalries and fierce ambitions, two powerful kings command their forces in a dramatic showdown, one seeking to defend his homeland, the other determined to claim a throne. But worry not, this isn’t your dusty old history class. Our battlefield becomes a living chessboard, where bold champions move to the command of their kings in a grand human combat match. Strategy, spectacle, and swordplay await, all in good fun and with a few surprises for the whole family. Whose tactics will triumph? Whose bravery will shine? The outcome lies in the game... so choose your side, cheer your champions.
So many fun things to do! Plenty of old historic oak trees with lots of shade and seating. Come enjoy the day with us.
The history so presented is a play on actual accounts of the stories and legends
of the characters involved during this time period.
The festival is an outdoor event, held in a natural park-like setting. Wheelchairs and motorized wheelchairs are welcome. Guests are welcome to wear medieval costumes! No outside food or beverages may be brought into the festival.

BEST HOLIDAY LIGHTING DISPLAYS IN THE WORLD!
DAY ONE
• As we travel to St. Augustine, we will make appropriate stops along the way including a lunch stop (OYO).
• Upon arrival in St Augustine, we will visit The Castillo de San Marcos, the oldest masonry fort in the continental United States. A large Spanish stone fortress built to protect and defend Spain's claims in the New World. It is a National Monument, more than 327 years old, and is the oldest structure in St. Augustine. Experience a little piece of history at the Castillo de San Marcos. Reenactors in period dress, and living historians, perform weapons demonstrations and fire the cannons at the Castillo.
See what it was like for the Spanish colonial settlers who used to live there. Under times of siege or other emergencies, all people in the settlement were ordered inside the fort for protection, and the cannons were aimed and fired if needed. This will be a self-guided tour, park rangers and living historians give you a detailed history of the fort and its previous residents. Look for the marks and drawings that British and Spanish soldiers left on the soft coquina walls.
