Knights , princesses and daring displays have helped attract the biggest crowd to the Blacktown City Medieval Fayre since the pandemic .
About 30,000 people attended the two-day weekend event at Nurragingy Reserve , Doonside , which delighted people of all ages .
Plenty were captivated by knights on horseback in the jousting competition and the crack of lances on shields drew gasps from the crowd . Swordsmanship displays , the birds of prey show , and medieval arts and crafts at the blacksmith and woodturners village all proved popular . Blacktown City Council organisers reported the greatest number of people entering the Best Dressed competition – another sign of strong community participation .
The enthusiasm extended to the
Medieval Banquet at The Colebee on Saturday night , which sold out well in advance .
Mayor Brad Bunting congratulated the performers , community and Council ’ s events team on a successful weekend .
“ The Blacktown City Medieval Fayre continues to go from strength to strength and has firmly entrenched itself as a favourite of our community ,” he said .
“ Blacktown City offers such a diverse range of events and it ’ s great to see people making the most of what we offer .” The Fayre is part of the Blacktown City Festival , run throughout May . Recent highlights include the Sweet Indulgence Dessert Festival and the Streets Alive and Parade Day .
