Canterbury’s Medieval Pageant and Family Trail returns on Saturday 6th July 2019. An anticipated audience of 5,000 will be enjoying the Medieval Pageant processing through the city streets between 11am-12.30pm. The fun continues into the afternoon with a city wide family trail featuring medieval activities in a variety local heritage sites which saw a record 4,000 visits during last year’s event.
