Mount Gambier’s Fantasy Medieval Fair Returns for a Weekend of Enchantment and Adventure
Mount Gambier is set to transform into a realm of knights, maidens and mystical wonders as the award-winning Fantasy Medieval Fair returns to the Mount Gambier Showgrounds on April 5 and 6.
This much-anticipated community event, run by passionate local volunteers, promises an unforgettable experience for families, history buffs, and fantasy lovers alike.
Visitors will step back in time and immerse themselves in a world of medieval combat, thrilling jousting tournaments, Tartan Muscled strength displays, and armoured knights battling for glory.
Interactive experiences include longbow archery, Dungeons and Dragons gaming, and lively village re-enactments showcasing medieval life.
The fair features over 80 themed merchants offering unique wares, from handcrafted weaponry and armor to period-inspired clothing and mystical trinkets.

A feast fit for royalty awaits with an array of street food vendors, while the tavern serves up traditional mead, mulled wine, ales, and medieval-inspired cocktails.
Adding to the immersive atmosphere, harpists and musicians will perform traditional medieval melodies, while roving entertainers and a classic Punch and Judy puppet show will delight children and adults alike.
Attendees are encouraged to embrace the medieval spirit by dressing in costume, with a competition rewarding the best-dressed participants.
“This event is a celebration of history, fantasy, and community spirit. Whether you’re here to cheer on the jousters, explore the bustling market, or simply soak up the enchanting atmosphere, there’s something for everyone to enjoy,” the event organisers said.
