Virtual Artisan Village
Cadrete (Zaragoza)
23 and 24 May
Medieval Market with Arts and Crafts Fair
Due to the unusually high temperatures, we have modified the programme:
all afternoon activities will start later and
the market will remain open till later.
Below you will find the revised programme with the new times.
For the first time, we're bringing our original arts and crafts to Cadrete!
We'll be setting up a beautiful medieval market, featuring demonstrations of blacksmithing, pottery, and stone carving, workshops for children, a medieval encampment with fencing and archery workshops, birds of prey with falconry demonstrations, a belly dancer, a dangerous bear, a jester/juggler, minstrels and a spectacular fire show each evening to close out the day.
But what will make this market truly special is the quality and originality of our work, because everything we offer is handmade!
We're open Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 am till 2:00 pm and from 5:00 till 10:00 pm, although we close earlier on Sunday
