Virtual Artisan Village
La Nucía (Alicante)
10, 11 and 12 July
Medieval Market with original arts and crafts
We return to the village center of La Nucía with our traditional medieval market that includes a blacksmith and his forge, a pottery workshop, an encampment with fencing and archery workshops, a belly dancer, medieval characters, minstrels and every evening a fire show to close the day. Like always, we offer a wide choice in Arts and Crafts with the guarantee that everything is hand made by us.
All three days we open from 6 pm till (past) midnight.
The photographs on this page are from last year and here below you can have a look at this year's programme.
Programme
The craft demonstrations take place at the stalls of the respective artisans, recognizable by a bright yellow cloth with the word DEMO.
