Join us for a day inspired by one of history’s most fascinating women, Empress Theodora of Byzantium.

Theodora, famed for her intelligence, beauty, and political acumen, was also a passionate supporter of the arts, patron to weavers, sculptors, jewelers, and performers who transformed the Byzantine world into a masterpiece of color and grace. This event invites all to explore the elegance and innovation of Byzantine art, from the luminous mosaics of Ravenna to the intricate silks of Constantinople.

There will be classes, displays, and competitions for artists and artisans of every kind.  We hope to have dancing and a fiber solar.  The day will end with a feast worthy of an empress, inspired by the flavors of Constantinople. Whether you come to teach, to learn, or simply to enjoy good company and beautiful things, we invite you to honor the ruler who made art part of her empire’s soul.

Celebrating the 51st Annual Tournament of Ymir and Baronial Birthday for Windmasters' Hill.

In the Old Norse tradition, Tyr is not only a war deity but also the God of Justice and Law. With his word honored among all the gods with the sacrifice of his arm in taming the Norse guardian Fenrir, Tyr represents sacrifice just as much as he does redemption in the eyes of the law. Ymir 51-Tyr’s Redemption allows us to look upon the sacrifices of our many chivalrous combatants across Atlantia in becoming noble and lawful fighters in the eyes of the crown.

For our learned and glorious A&S competitors we offer the chance to show active displays of art and science that envision sacrifice, ensure justice and honor, and celebrate war as well as show acts of kindness and mercy. These can come in the form of a scarf used to shelter a young one from the cold, the creation of food and drink utilized in war celebrations, or even the best use of “scales of justice” in a period piece of art or craft.

As for our wonderful forms of combat we will showcase fencing and heavy combat challenges that involve the best use of just one arm instead of both in achieving goals established by our martials. Tournaments of Chivalry will be among the most well attended by our combatants in order to prove their worth. We are also playing host to the Titan Tournament which will also celebrate Tyr as our patron diety.

With the assistance of Noble Grissel Dhai and their assembled team of accomplished chefs who will be responsible for different meals on Friday night, Saturday morning, and Saturday evening respectively-we are sure to bring delights to the populace of Windmasters Hill and the rest of Atlantia!

The Battle of Marignano in 1515 was the end of the War of the League of Cambrai. The French army, led by the newly-crowned Francis I, fought against the Old Swiss Confederacy which had been expanding southward into the Italian peninsula. Supporting the French were German landsknecht and Venetian condottieri. Francis' success in this battle ended the expansion of the Swiss confederacy, and marks the last time the Swiss ever officially fought in an offensive conflict. The mercenary support, especially that of the late-arriving Venetians, was crucial to France's success. Come join us for day of fighting, arts & sciences and feasting celebrating helpful mercenaries and the variety of Swiss culture.

NOTE NEW DATE: SUNDAY MARCH 29, 2026

SUNDAY! SUNDAY! SUNDAY!

This is an event OF performers FOR performers BY performers!

The call goes out to all musicians, singers, poets, dancers, actors, storytellers, jugglers and other practitioners of the performing arts. Novice performers are particularly encouraged.

Are you perhaps learning a new art or skill? Are you perhaps reluctant to perform before a packed and noisy hall? Then this event is especially for you!  By longstanding tradition, we have no audience - everyone who attends must contribute at least one performance. But fear not! The definition of "performance" is quite elastic. Give it a try!

New this time: We will have a sign up for slots to perform. We ask people to let others perform once, before they perform again. There should be plenty of time to grace the audience with multiple performances.

Coronation of Wilhelm and Genevieve,

Their Royal Highnesses of the Kingdom of Atlantia

On April 4, 2026, The Kingdom of Atlantia joins to witness and celebrate the Coronation of Wilhelm and Genevieve, as They step forward to assume the Crown. This day marks both continuity and renewal—honoring the traditions that have shaped Atlantia while embracing the living legacy of its people today.

In keeping with this vision, Their Royal Highnesses invite the populace to participate in a kingdom-wide Pilgrimage, inspired by the great Caminos of history. Throughout the day, attendees will journey through a series of stations hosted by the Baronies of Atlantia.

Each Barony is asked to present a unique offering reflecting its identity: honoring those nobles who have gone before, uplifting those who serve and inspire now, and celebrating the arts, skills, and pursuits for which the Barony is known—be it martial, scholarly, artistic, or otherwise.

The day will also feature:

A Heavy Fighting Tourney

A Rapier Tourney

Archery activities

A&S Display and Competition

A sumptuous dayboard, available throughout the day for all to enjoy.

This Coronation is envisioned not only as a moment of fealty

and pageantry, but as a living walk through Atlantia’s shared past, present, and future—crafted by the hands and hearts of its people.

All are welcome to attend, to walk the pilgrimage, to bear witness, and to celebrate the ascension of Their Royal Highnesses.

The realms of the Knowne World prepare for war, and the shores of Atlantia are under threat. Their Excellencies Linhart and Letia have decided to assemble an able crew for a new baronial flagship to protect valuable trade routes. To ensure that this crew is truly the best Lochmere has to offer, a day of competition has been declared. Attendees will compete to win an honored place among the defenders of Atlantian shores.

Attendees will earn standings points in each discipline in which they compete and may compete in multiple aspects of the event to earn the captaincy of the new vessel, with discipline winners winning titles of their own. To be eligible for the captaincy, an attendee must compete in a minimum of three disciplines, at least one of which must be martial and one non-martial. A competitor may only hold one role in the crew, so winners of multiple disciplines will choose one title and pass any others to the next eligible runner-up. The overall winner will be decided by highest average score among eligible attendees.

The titles for winners are as follows:

• Captain: The highest average scorer among eligible competitors

• First Mate: Winner of the rapier tournament

• Sharpshooter: Winner of the archery tournament

• Marine: Winner of the thrown weapons tournament

• Ship’s Carpenter: Winner of the woodworking competition

• Ship’s Physician: Winner of the period medicine/herbalism competition

• Ship’s Musician: Winner of the Bardic Competition

Call to Arms!

This time it's for real!

L ast year the rumors of war were proven to be false. While the enemy did not appear on the horizon, the Atlantian Army, small as it was, was ready to defend our lands and hold off the invaders until the entire kingdom could be mustered and brought to bare.

This time it's for real! We know the rumors to be true and the Meridians are coming!

The Back Story
The Canton of Stormwall is completely surrounded on three sides by the Kingdom of Meridies. It is logical that the Meridians would make their incursion into Atlantia through this sleepy canton nestled in the mountains. It could take weeks before news of this invasion would reach the ears of the Atlantian Crown and a kingdom wide alarm is raised. Stormwall must rely on their brethren from Hawkwood and their cousins from Sacred Stone and Nottinghill Coill if the invaders are to be slowed or dare we hope,  repelled. Gird up your loins, strap your kit to your steed and make haste to the West to prevent the invaders from gaining a foothold on our lands.

Once a year, the veil between worlds grows thin, and ancient roads, long lost to time, reveal themselves once more. In the hidden places of history—where mysticism, superstition, and the macabre ruled the Middle Ages—a crossroads took root, forged by those who walked the forgotten paths of the thinning veil. Here, at the confluence of worlds, lies a place where treasures are exchanged, memories are honored, and history breathes.

As the newly born Mourning Moon ascends, the pathways are open to this archaic place for all to journey. Beyond this threshold, wanderers and traders from the medieval world converge. Viking storytellers, Celtic mystics, Moorish scholars, and Mongol horsemen arrive to share skills, relics, secrets, and stories. Some bring offerings for the dead, others seek wisdom from spirits who linger beyond the veil.

The journey will be dangerous, so disguise yourself in attire to blend in with the medieval denizens of this market. You may find yourself learning arts long lost to time, trading tokens from another realm, unearthing forgotten tales by firelight, or discovering the rituals of undiscovered lands. Will you walk among the traders of forgotten civilizations? Carry home a relic from another age? Or leave changed, haunted by whispers of those who once stood in your place?

Holiday Market is a hybrid public/private event held in partnership with Mountain Rubn Winery.

From 12:00-5:00 pm SCA members and vendors will conduct a demonstration and market open to the public free of charge. The public can take classes and view demonstrations/displays that include archery, thrown weapons, youth combat, arts, sciences, and games. There will be a Halloween-themed costume contest. Food trucks will be on site.

At 5:00 the site will be closed to the public for a private SCA event. SCA members, vendors, and non-members who pay the site fee are welcome to stay for a night of revelry. A court and medievel-themed costume contest will begin the evening. From 7:00-9:00 roasted meats, stew, bread, and potatoes will be available for those who pay the feast fee.

For Twelfth Night 2027, the populace is invited to celebrate a season of transition, where old traditions and joyful excess meet at the turning of the year. The theme draws inspiration from late medieval southern Germany and Switzerland, where winter observances blended seamlessly with lively seasonal celebrations marking the close of one cycle and the promise of the next.

By the fifteenth century, these celebrations had fused into a distinctive blend of formality and fun. Daytime brought courtly pomp, displays of skill, and structured ceremony, while nightfall ushered in feasting, dancing, and masked revelry. This balance of order and exuberance provides the perfect setting for Atlantia’s Twelfth Night, offering a full day of pageantry and arts followed by an evening devoted to celebration, community, and unapologetic joy.

During this time, the days surrounding Twelfth Night marked the end of the winter holiday season and the gradual shift toward spring. Communities gathered for pageantry, symbolic acts of renewal, and public festivities that reflected both reflection and anticipation. These moments were as much about community and tradition as they were about marking time itself.

Alongside this came Fasnacht, a vibrant pre Lenten carnival that preserved much older seasonal customs. Masquerades, mummers, and playful processions filled towns with music, laughter, and satire. Masks and costumes allowed for mischief and creativity, and the rules of everyday life were happily bent before the long quiet of late winter.
