A few days remain before the start of the Genoese Helmet International Knights' Festival, which traditionally, for the 21st time, will be held on the territory of the Sudak Genoese fortress.
Initially, the organizers planned to start the festival in the second half of June, but later it was decided to make amendments to the schedule. Now on the social network VKontakte in the official group of the 'Genoese Helmet', the current dates are: July 1-3, as well as August 5-7, 12-14 and 19-21.

The festival program includes knights' fights, a massive assault on the fortress, archery tournaments, folk craft fairs, blacksmith competitions, demonstration shooting of medieval artillery, contests of medieval costumes and armor, competitions of riders and much more.
"The participants of the festival are clubs of historical reconstruction and historical fencing. They thoroughly study the art of war, armor of knights, weapons, games and, of course, the traditions of the Middle Ages. Here, each costume is a reflection of an entire era," the organizers said.
According to them, the general admission ticket for the whole day of the festival (every day the program is the same) is 800 rubles (about $ 15), a discount ticket is 600 rubles (about $ 11). Children under 7 years old − free entrance.
