A bardic event with lunch and feast featuring both classes and competitions focused on the bardic arts. Come to our event hosted by the Barony of Three Mountains! Entertainment and camaraderie are the order of the day! A light lunch and an evening feast with a vie for Coronet’s choice bardic entertainment! While you join us to be entertained and for some great food come to witness a portion of the new Kingdom Bardic Championship format and our baronial competition as well! If you wish to participate you are welcome to do one or both!

Join the Barony of Three Mountains on April 5th, 2025 for a day filled with classes, songs, and storytelling topped off with a spectacular feast and dancing.

There will be opportunities to perform your favorite music or stories both as part of the competition as well as in a non-competitive format. For the competition, we have been working hard making fabulous prizes to be awarded in these categories: best vocal performance, best storytelling or poem performance, and best instrumental performance. You are limited to one entry per category for competition. Additional performances (non-competitive) may be allowed depending on time available. Documentation is not required, but be prepared to discuss your piece and context in history before you perform. We will choose a best overall bard for the day as well as award a prize for the populace’s choice.

There will also be an open floor during the feast with a possible small prize for the Coronet’s favorite dinner time performer. We will also be hosting the An Tir Regional Bardic Competition Event for the Rivers Region. You may choose to enter the baronial competition, the An Tir Competition or both.
