A word of explanation about the page :)

The links above lead to the pages with the pictures on them. There are rather a lot of them, so in order to make browsing a little easier, I have spread them over several pages. Thank you to Lord Karel of the Three Isles, Mistress Nicolette Dufay and Aelesia de Trachdene who are responsible for some of the images shown on these pages. And some later additions by Lady Teffania Tuckerton.

What is the Rowany Festival?

As usual, much of the Kingdom of Lochac repaired to Rowany Festival 22 (I think) over Easter. Once again, the site was the medieval permaculture collective of Crossroads, near Yass in New South Wales. The Rowany Festival is the largest SCA event in the Kingdom of Lochac (Australia) each year at Easter, this year (2004CE).

What happens at Festival?

Every facet of the SCA can be seen at Festival. This year up to 4 streams of Collegia ran from 8-30am until 4pm for 4 days. The Fighter Auction Tourney had about 100+ heavy fighters take to the List field. Wars were held on two days, and pick up fights occured daily on the List field. The Art of Defence held the Annual Baroness' Tourney, and guild members played their prizes. There was an huge market held on Easter Saturday. Archery of all sorts took place, along with meetings of the peerages, OziBoD, officers, committees and special interest groups such as Guilds. Many Courts were held for Kingdom and Baronial business to be conducted. There were elevations to two peerages (Chivalry and Laurels). A patisserie, a tavern, a wine bar and a fine eatery operated every day of the Festival, and merchants peddled their wares beside the village brown.  There really is no excuse to be bored!
