It is that time of the year, folks! The weather has chilled, and the holidays are almost done so that means BOAR FEST!!!!!
Come join the Barony of Tir Ysgithr as we wrap up the holiday season in style with delicious food, drink, and merriment for free! Our food will be a Potluck – Please see below for suggestions on what to bring.
Are you a Brewer? Please bring your delicious winter brews to share for our Brewing Contest!
We will have a Medieval-Themed Photo Booth area for those who are having too much fun to remember to take photos.
Are you a skilled fighter? Put on a blindfold and test yourself in a Windchime Tournament.
None of the above sound like your jam? Come enjoy and/or participate in a bardic circle! Bring your favorite festive crowd-pleasers or use the opportunity to try out something new (Optional) theme will be revelry, merriment, or the holidays. Please plan to keep each performance to 5 minutes or less.
