On July 20, the downtown core of Fergus was transformed into a thriving medieval village, complete with vikings, knights, peasants, jesters and a king and queen.

Amongst the day long entertainment and opportunities to get medieval, faire-goers enjoyed sword dances, falconry demonstrations, the magic of a bubble fairy and a mermaid, and a viking battle.

Many enthusiasts travelled from places like Niagara and Toronto dressed in their medieval-style finery just for the faire.
