Hundreds Leave Real World Behind to Live Out Medieval Fantasy

Image: https://authoritypresswire.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Hundreds-Leave-Real-World-Behind-to-Live-Out-Medieval-Fantasy-in-Texas.jpgThis week hundreds of Americans will be escaping the aftermath of the presidential election to live out a medieval fantasy.

From Wednesday to Sunday, an area of Texas near Austin will be declared a politics-free zone as people take part in a fully immersive experience inspired by fantasies like Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and Dungeons and Dragons. Hynafol's Grand Gathering is taking place on the site of the Sherwood Forest Faire, in McDade.

The five-day event allows participants to create their own characters, take part in quests, solve puzzles and even battle against mythical creatures. Tickets are still available for the Grand Gathering, including weekend passes and spectator day passes which will allow people to watch the action on Saturday, November 9.

Adam Lyons, who is one of the event organisers and co-owner of Hynafol, says: "People will live in a fantasy medieval village, wear real armor, battle orcs and goblins, build alliances, complete quests and solve puzzles. There's no technology allowed - no phones, no Internet, just living and breathing this immersive experience.

"It's the perfect way to switch off from what is going on in the world today and the stresses of everyday life. We're offering the ultimate escapism and we actually have a rule - while you're here you can't talk about politics or any real world issues at all."

The Grand Gathering takes place on the grounds of Sherwood Forest Faire, one of the largest and most immersive medieval villages in the United States. The site includes its own castle, battlefield, jousting arena and multiple taverns and restaurants.

Hynafol is now in its third year and the event has grown bigger each year. To find out more or buy tickets, visit www.hynafol.com [http://www.hynafol.com/]
