** As of 10/17,
this event has reached its capacity!  We do still encourage
folks to register if they want to attend, as we will be building a
Wait List.  You will be contacted in the event of an
opening.  Looking forward to seeing everyone
there!

Please be advised that this event has historically sold out
quickly!  There are a limited number of seats, and they are
coveted.  If you wish to attend, please don’t delay in sending
in your registration (link below).

You can also keep up to date by joining the Midhaven Harvest Feast
Group on Facebook.  We’ll post updates there too.

Join us to celebrate Samhain, the Celtic festival to mark summers’
end. Come in your most festive attire to feast and socialize.

Participate in our A & S Display of Medieval Masks! No
documentation required. Help us add cheer to the event by tying
your mask up with the others.

Bring your persona in costume, or try a new time frame on for fun.
Samhain is best celebrated in disguise, so it’s a perfect time to
try new times and places on! We will be hosting a photo-booth, so
you can have your picture taken in your finery.

This event will also feature out delicious Dessert Auction!  A
portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Kingdom General
Fund!  Entrants are encouraged to bring a small plate of
samples, so gentles can try, before they buy.  Entrants are
also encouraged to bring a card listing ingredients.  The
famous Guinness Cake will certainly make an appearance!

After our sumptuous feast, and royal court, join us for a ghost
story bardic circle. Terrify and delight with your best medieval
ghost story. Weather permitting, it will take place out under the
stars.

If you are in need of Gold Key, please mention it on your
registration!!
