The Crimean military and historical festival will be held in Sevastopol for the seventh time. This year it will take place on September 4-6 and will be dedicated to the opening of the Fedyukhiny Heights Live History Park. The event will reflect all the main historical eras of the Crimean peninsula. In total, there are 10 sites that will cover 8 periods of the Crimean history, the organizers wrote on Facebook.

Thus, at the festival it will be possible to visit the Ancient Rome site where trainings of legionnaires, gladiator fights, craft workshops and board games will be shown. And especially for girls, there will be secrets of beauty and cooking of Roman matrons. At the Antique Taurika site the life and crafts of nomads (Scythians and Sarmatians) will be presented. Equestrian stunt shows and warrior competitions will also be shown there.

The Medieval Rus site will acquaint the guests with the culture, traditions, crafts and warrior skills of that period, and offer a playground. Loco Cimbali will help you immerse in the world of the Genoese. This location is a 15th century settlement − a city of Italian artisans. Here you will be able to learn the dances, music, games and cuisine of medieval Italy. 

Camp of mercenaries − austere and brave medieval knights − will be located near the peaceful settlement. They will fight in a tournament, talk about their weapons and teach military skills everyone who wants.

One of the historical sites will also be dedicated to the Great Patriotic War. It will host an exhibition of weapons and equipment, the field positions of the Wehrmacht and the Soviet Army. The reenactors who will immerse themselves in this period will also arrange a large-scale reconstruction of the battle of Sevastopol in 1944.
