To mark the Spring Equinox, Blackfriars will host an authentic medieval banquet served by monks and town wenches. Arrive in medieval costume and enjoy a sumptuous banquet and live entertainment.
The Dominican Black Friars are delighted to welcome honourable dignitaries, townsfolk of Newcastle, urchins and reprobates to take a step back in time for a sumptuous feast in Blackfriars ornate Banquet Hall, built by our brothers back in 1239.
The candle-lit hall which houses long convivial oak tables and chairs will be draped with wall hangings and tapestries and decorated with candles and fruit. You will feast on pottage and pies, roasts, cheese and pudding!
Flagons of ale and fine wine will be available to purchase, to wash it all down, served by our esteemed friars and town wenches. Entertainment will also be provided on the night and guests who dress in a medieval costume will receive a free drink.
