ESTRELLA WAR XXVII (February 14-21, 2011)

Estrella War is a week-long, annual event hosted by the Kingdom of Atenveldt, one of 19 Kingdoms (regional chapters) of the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA), a not-for-profit educational organization that studies western European history by recreating the "best" pastimes and crafts of the Middle Ages.  SCA participants devote their free time to tournaments, educational collegiums (classes), feasts, revels, the many forms of medieval warfare, and all sorts of arts and sciences dating from pre-1600s western Europe. Currently in its 27th year, the Estrella War brings together participants from SCA chapters around the world to conduct a medieval style two-sided war between SCA Kingdoms.

Each year, the Kingdom of Atenveldt asks one or more other SCA Kingdoms to participate as Principal Kingdoms at Estrella War. The participating Kingdoms then form alliances to form two opposing Allied Realms. They meet in competition during the week of the event in campaigns waged by heavy combat and rapier armies on the battlefield, in a target archery competition, and in a competition using Arts & Sciences skills from the Middle Ages. For Estrella War XXVII (Feb 2011), the Kingdom of Atenveldt is pleased to announce that the Kingdom of the Outlands has accepted an invitation to participate as a Principal Kingdom. The Kingdom of Atenveldt and it's allies will form one Allied Realm in the conflict, and the Kingdoms of the Outlands and it's allies will form the opposing Allied Realm.

Estrella War offers all the members of your family a chance to spend a week camping and living with thousands of others as part of a medieval town with a robust Merchant’s Row. Held in February at Canyon Moon Ranch in Florence, AZ, the event provides those who are interested in things Medieval with a diverse combination of the exciting activities offered by the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA). We invite you to explore the details of the event on these webpages, and to come join us in the warm Atenveldt Sun for a Glorious escape from the modern world!
