Please join Delftwood for the Feast of the Seven Deadly Sins on February 21, 2026 at our AMAZING NEW SITE: The Wegmans Art & Home Building at the Great New York State Fairgrounds! With about 20,000 square feet, we have room for everything: fencing (of course), heavy fighting, bardic performances on stage, merchants, courtesans, a living artists’ display, vigils, a scroll blank competition, largesse competition, and more! It’s also the Investiture of Ixac and Amalie as Baron and Baroness! The site is fully-accessible through ramps and elevators. Site opens to the public at 9AM and closes at 9PM. Important food note: THERE WILL BE NO PUBLIC DAYBOARD OR FEAST. Please bring your own food to share amongst your beloveds. Vigil food is implied to be shared amongst beloveds and not provided by event staff. The Fairgrounds are very close to many restaurants, grocery stores, and places to get food, including a Byrne Dairy with a fresh deli right across the street.
Important alcohol note: Alcohol must be purchased from the alcohol concessions provider at the event. No other alcohol can be brought on site or consumed on site. Since the NYS Fairgrounds are directly overseen by New York State, there can be NO EXCEPTIONS.
Open flames are not permitted.
