24th Tallinn Medieval Days Festival

Starting tomorrow and running for the next four days, Tallinn's old town will transform into a blossoming Hanseatic town once again. From 6 - 9th July 2023 the 24th annual Medieval Days festival will take place in Tallinn where merchants, craftsmen, musicians and dancers will woo onlookers with their skills and wares.

The opening parade will start by the Viru gates tomorrow at 5:30pm and the knights' tournament on Saturday begins at noon. 

Festival goers can learn more about medieval medicine at the Town Hall Pharmacy (Raeapteek), it's the oldest continuously running pharmacy in Europe. Visitors can also explore Tallinn's Town Hall (Tallinna Raekoda), which is Northern Europe's only intact and best-preserved Gothic town hall. 

With so much to see and do, Tallinn is the place to be this weekend!
