Battlefield Usage

Battlefield Reservations

The deadline for submitting Battlefield Use Requests was July 23rd. If you have a question you can write to the Battlefield Scheduler, Sir Gunther Kegslayer.

Parking on the battlefield

There will be NO PARKING on the battlefield again this year except for the following:
  • Handicapped or reserved parking designated by the Coopers.
  • Limited permits for those setting up or taking down field pavilions.
  • Siege weapon parking.
  • Limited parking for those who reserved a timeslot for a tourney.

Hay Bales

Hay bales are placed on the field for boundary marking and safety zones. They may not be moved into Personal or Royal pavilions or used for any personal purpose. Tents found utilizing Pennsic property may be subject to being dropped and removed.

Tents on the battlefield

Royalty Tents may be placed on the east and west ends of the battlefield. Please request your space using the Royal Pavilion Reservation Form, and Battlefield staff will do their best to assign you a location that meets your needs. Tents may not be set up anywhere on the field before 8:00 am on Wednesday, August 4th.

Individual/Household tents may be placed on the east and west ends of the battlefield. Areas approved for personal tents will be marked and will be available for set up on a first-come, first-served basis, starting at 8:00 am on Wednesday, August 4th. Personal tents may be placed near the rapier lists with the Rapier Marshal's approval only.

No tents may be placed on the north or south sides of the field.

All tents on the battlefield must be labelled with a tent information card (available from Information Point or a member of the battlefield staff) detailing name and camping location of the owner. This is mostly for your protection and that of your belongings if it becomes necessary to drop a tent for any reason.

If you have any special requests please contact the battlefield coordinator.

Volunteers

It takes, on average, 250-300 man-hours over two weeks for the Main Battlefield to be set-up, moved, and torn down, in addition to the hours that marshals spend making sure the battles are safe and fun. Please think about volunteering some of your time for either or both. It is not all strenuous work, and the more people we have, the less difficult it becomes. If you come to Pennsic to fight, please donate a bit of your time to help so that you, and all the other fighters, can have fun on the field.
