Get ready for a spectacular celebration as the much-loved Medieval Festival Parade returns to the streets of Tewkesbury!

The Roses is using its theatrical know-how to return medieval pomp and ceremony to the town’s high street. For many years, the parade was one of the highlights of the Medieval Festival, delighting residents and visitors alike.

Expect dazzling costumes, roaming medieval reenactors and a vibrant procession through the town centre as we celebrate Tewkesbury’s rich history. The parade will begin at the junction of the High Street and Quay Street before making its way through the town and finishing at The Vineyards.
