Weekend Warrior tickets go live Summer 2025!
Weekend Warrior is Oct. 24-26th 2025 in Anderson, SC (Early Check-in Oct. 23)
Winter of the Year of Light, 1125.
Returning to the capital city of Olaran, King Bryce calls all true Kingsmen to support the throne and put down the treacherous Ranger rebellion that threatened the unity of the realm. New recruits flock to the Kingsmen banner, swearing their loyalty to Bryce and swelling the ranks of gold-clad warriors at the Kingsmen Academy. King Bryce and Reeve Kestrel now focus on building a government based on the core Kingsmen tenets where the honor and merit of one’s deeds mean more than the blood or family.
Returning to the Thornwood and picking up new recruits along the way, Commander O’Dale begins to form his plans as the cities of Olaran empty of Rangers, who seek the shelter of the forested hills and dales. Spreading throughout the lands, they begin their campaign to convince the citizenry to rise up against a king they view as an illegitimate and misguided ruler, and reestablish true rights and justice with the help of the Regency Government.
Back in Thriese, the Sea Lords recover from the battle, and prepare to take advantage of the split nature of their enemies to strengthen their control of the river that links them with The Hearthlands. With the return of Commodore Hvitserk from his secret mission to the Barrens, Captain Andar relinquishes command of the fleet and concentrates his efforts on the building of the newest ship in the fleet, The Barca’s Revenge.
While the Wold Folk are left temporarily in peace, they know that this will not last. Having now to contend with the Rangers in the woodlands of Olaran, they prepare their warriors and send forces to train alongside their Kingsmen allies in the capital city of the realm.
The Themisians have become more settled in this new land, and have begun a lucrative trade with Throi and the Hearthlands. Now they ply the rivers between the realms bringing trade and information from the Sea Lords to the Hearth-Guard.
The Order of Luminos is now under the command of Brother Hugo, who has deployed them to protect the people of Luminos alongside the Ranger forces. Now spread throughout the land, they wage a war against the nobility of Olaran, seeking justice for its people and supporting the Regency Government.
And in the Hearthlands, Queen Tove has called a moot - a great gathering of her people at which the fate of her land, and perhaps all lands will be decided…
What is Weekend Warrior?
The Weekend Warrior Experience is a carefully crafted immersive event, designed to help you lose yourself in a detailed and fascinating adventure. Step into the world of Adrasil, a low-fantasy, medieval, human world where warring factions fight and scheme for dominance. No matter if you are an experienced medieval fighter, or have never taken up a sword in your life, this is an event where everyone's talents, skills and knowledge can be put to use!
Originally designed and run by costume and film studios Fell & Fair Productions and The Forge Studios, Weekend Warrior provides an immersive entrance into a cinematic world.
Choose to join one of seven factions inspired by historical cultures, engage in battle, enjoy fantastic medieval meals and feasts, sing battle songs by the campfire and get carried away by the adventure with your friends.
Training Grounds
Learn how to become a warrior!
Training Grounds is a single-day training event to prepare you for medieval fantasy combat! Rather than focus on immersion, Training Grounds is a great way to dip your toes into medieval combat. Not a combatant? Our team of healers will train you to get warriors back into the fight! We have multiple Training Grounds events each year! Find out all the details HERE.
