The Malton Roman Festival is back
This year they arrive Sunday 20th July at their home at the Roman fort on Orchard Field. They will be making camp and cleaning all their kit in anticipation of marching around the fort with the Kids Roman Army. Recruitment starts at 10.30am.
As well as the living history encampment, visitors can see Roman entertainments and crafts. Roman history researchers and archaeologists will be there too, along with authors of both fact and fiction.
Highlights of the kids activities are always the sword, shield and tile painting, mosaics, dressing up, axe and plumbata throwing as well as our archaeology ‘dig’. You can even learn to ‘beat box’ with ‘Spartapuss’.
Food and drink will keep you happy whilst you watch the Roman Cavalry and other demos in the arena.
Bring the whole family along for a day in Roman Delgovicia!
Adults £10 Kids under 14 years free. Kids 14 -18 years £5
