Dive into the heart of the Middle Ages
After fire, earth and water, the Medieval Bayeux completed their cycle around the elements in 2026: this year, air is explored in all its forms. From the 3rd to the 5th of July, wind instruments, legendary birds, glass-blowers and other creatures from the sky will gather in Bayeux and invite those who wish to climb up…
not to be missed
this year
La grande
Parade
03/07 8:30 pM
For this 39th edition, the primary element of the festivities will be air, and spectators will be able to see, hear and admire countless stilt-walkers, acrobats, men-at-arms, journeymen, craftsmen, peasants and of course music and rhythms…
Night market
03/07 7pm – 11:30 pm
The night market stretches over the entire site, animated by the medieval spirit. 120 stalls are to be found: creators, artisans and producers shout out about their wares to the enthusiastic crowds.
Gruppo Storico Fivizzano
04/07 8:45 pm
Coming from Italy, flag throwers, drummers, buglers, fifers and Dames of the Renaissance take you on a whirl of colours, sounds and banner pageantry. A very unique production!
COURSEVAL
04/07 10 pm
How would Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” have sounded in 1350? What if Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You” had been written by a 15th-century French minstrel? This is the concept of Courseval, the first “Bardcore” music group, a new genre of music consisting of modern pop/rock hits with medieval instruments.
A timeless atmosphere
