The 28th Festival at the Edge – Storytelling & Music weekend. Enjoy a weekend of superb storytelling and music in Shropshire’s spectacular countryside
17-19th July 2020
With last year’s transport rally being a roaring success, we are excited to host the event again for 2020. We had over 500 vehicles in attendance last year, and a huge crowd of enthralled spectators, all of whom made it a fantastic day..
So this year, we are putting the pedal to the metal, and are busy organizing lots of exciting things, including live music, the famous midday cavalcade, and exciting activities for the children!
The battle of Shrewsbury weekend
Over the anniversary week of the Battle of Shrewsbury, we travel back to medieval Shropshire to see the sights and sounds of every life leading upto the battle.
During this great family day out you will get to see knights in armour and archers preparing for battle, living history including traditional crafts and cookery. With many activities to try your hand at throughout the day and many skills that can be used today.
There will be a historical market area selling all manners of wares, plus local crafts, organisations and much more.
Each day will end with the Battle of Shrewsbury where you can choose sides of the rebel army or the king himself.
