Make Your Own Medieval Experience

Make Your Own Medieval Experience is a Living History and research group with a focus on civilian life, specifically the arts, crafts, entertainments and trades present in European history between 900 and 1650AD. We are located in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia

Outside of Living History or Re-enactment events, members can explore a broad range of historical activities covering our entire timespan through our guild system. The guilds are set up for the purpose of researching historical skills, learning and developing skills, and building a knowledge base which can be shared with the re-enactment community. If there isn’t already a guild which suits your area of interest, then you may be able to start one.

At a Living History or Re-enactment event, we aim to present an impression of a township. Visitors will find themselves in the hustle of town and might see artisans at work or workshops producing goods. The different guilds may be present in the form of a historical display or workshop where they can demonstrate and teach the historic crafts they have learnt. We have a strong focus on research and strive for the highest standards of authenticity on clothing equipment, conduct and activities and our aim at events is to both educate and entertain members of the public. For living history or re-enactment displays, presenting a broad time period while maintaining the level of authenticity expected is not possible. Therefore at each event we will display a more limited time period which will be chosen an announced prior to the event.
