A day of medieval festivities will take over Aylesbury on Sunday 21 April the St George’s Day Medieval Fayre and Parade.
The free-to-attend event is the first in the Town Council’s calendar for 2024 and invites residents of all ages to celebrate England’s patron saint.
Discover Bucks Museum will transform into a medieval fayre with crafts, talks, demonstrations, and performances to keep the whole family entertained. Curious about how people in the Middle Ages looked after their health? There’s a chance to quiz a medieval physician plus there will be hilarious performances from Queens Park Art Centre’s Unbound Theatre.
New for 2024, The King’s Head Pub will host a pub quiz, the arming of the knight, an informative presentation on St George and nationally acclaimed ‘Gilbert the Executioner’ shows and more – perfect for those joining us without little ones.
St George himself will then lead a uniformed parade to be proud of on horseback. Local uniformed youth groups, dignitaries and groups will parade around Market Square from 3pm before a service of thanks.
St George’s Day Medieval Fayre takes place at Discover Bucks Museum on Sunday 21 April from 11am-3pm and the Kings Head pub from 12-3pm. The parade will take place from 3pm in Market Square. This event is free for all to attend.
