SWORDPUNK XXII – Myths, Folklore and Legends

Newnham Paddox, Thursday 27 to Sunday 30 May 2027

Enter a world filled with mythical creatures and folkloric fantasy, laced with legend. Once again we invite you join us in the beautiful, landscaped gardens of Newnham Paddox in Warwickshire that Swordpunk has come to call home.

The event comprises of two days of scheduled activities in these three areas

  • Ranged Weapons
  • Weapons Training
  • Solo Training.

Each ticket allows you to choose your preferred activities in each of these areas over two days. A real life “choose your own adventure” with an extensive selection of things to try.

Amble to the ranged weapons are where you will find Archery, Longbow, Knife and Axe Throwing, Atlatl, Sling.

Then test your metal in the weapons training area where you can try you hand at Stage Combat, Sword and Sheild, Escrima and so much more. Meander to the solos training area and choose from activities such as Whip Cracking, Rope Dart or Circus Skills. We are currently in the process of curating the May timetable but in the meantime, here’s an example of the scheduled activities from events gone by….

Your ticket also gives you access to our additional bookable workshops in our Arts & Crafts, Swordpunk Activities, Music Making and Well Being Areas. Past workshops have included, Blacksmithing, Bronze Casting, Jewellery Making, Chainmail, Leatherworking, Hojo Jutsu, paddleboarding, fantasy archery, pole dancing, axe fighting, bellydancing, The Phoenix Session have-a-go-fire workshop and so much more.

And to help you recover from your fun packed day we have our Swordpunk Sanctury with on-site sports massage and Indian head massage therapists, Hopi Ear Candle Therapy, Meditation sessions and Posture Workshops.

Each event has new and exciting additions to our workshop timetable and SWORDPUNK XXII is no exception – we are working away to bring some brilliant new classes that we can’t wait to share with you…

After a hard day training, let us entertain you with Live Music, D.J’s and The Saturday Night Fire Show.

Make the weekend your own –why not discover the tranquility of a wild swim in the lake at sunrise or the magic of dancing under twinkling lights in the tree cave at night, bring an offering to “The Cheesening” where we feast together and meet friends old and new before setting off for the Paddleboard Jousting Tournament. Theres so much on offer and we guarantee you an experience like no other.

Tickets include onsite camping and we also welcome live-in vehicles. We have hot showers and probably the best compost toilets you will come across. We have our food vendors – Rice, Noodles and Rolls – serving breakfast , lunch and dinner, should you prefer not to self-cater and a licensed bar provided by Troll’s Bottom.
