The Kimberley City Bakery is hosting its fourth and final Medieval Festival on July 14 and 15, 2018. Eric and Michelle Forbes will once again don the festive king and queen garb as they guide locals and tourists alike on a trip through time when vikings, knights and fighters sought to make their mark in history.

The weekend festival kicks off with a parade on Saturday at 10 a.m. in the Platzl. The viking village will once again be at Centennial Park where visitors can watch battle reenactments, eat medieval food and learn about the culture of vikings and knights. The event is free to attend and appropriate for all ages.
