Welcome to Swordpunk

Welcome to Swordpunk, the UK’s only small festival where you get up close and personal with sharp and dangerous objects.

What is Swordpunk?

At this 3 day event in the Warwickshire countryside we’ve mastered the art of playing it cool with medieval weapons. From whips to axes, swords, spears, and archery. Train, feast and play with a merry band of troubadours, warriors and reprobates, then relax in our tavern, The Shattered Shield.

Embrace your inner Pagan at our evening fire circle—watch knights in full plate clash with flaming swords and axes as you sup honey mead and make merry. Dress in your finest armour, garb, or themed attire, and revel in a night of fire, feasting, and festivity!

The Venue

Swordpunk is set in a private estate in the Warwickshire countryside – nestled next to two lakes, one of which you can swim in.

The Fire Show

We have a legendary fire show, with Pagan-esque performances, acrobatics, full plate armoured knights, and of course lots of fire.

The Instructors

We’d love you to get to know our instructors, from expert fencers and knife fighters, archers and hand-t0-hand specialists.

Crafting

 It’s not all about fighting – we have blacksmithing in our forge, wood whittling, circus skills and more

Merry Making

Spend time by the fire circle catching up with old friends and making new ones

Banners & Factions

Many Swordpunkers have been returning for years, and have formed their own orders and factions, complete with matching tabards. From the Badger-Striped Robot Earwigs to the Tree Of Shields – which will yours be?
