Join with the nobles, serfs, Vikings, Saxons, Celts, Knights and Ladies that will grace our lively city at the Supreme Court Gardens. A grand parade will travel through the fayre grounds, delighting all with dancers, merchants, minstrels and everything medieval on the eve of All Fools Day, thanks to sponsors the City of Perth and Healthways.
