I would love to join Empire Larp one day, but I live in the Netherlands so it's quiet expensive to join (with travel and such). Lukely, we have an amazing festival over here, called CastleFest. It's not specifically a LARP event, but a Medieval(Fantasy)/Folk/Music festival. A lot of music, stands, workshops (crafting, swordfighting, etc.), LARP and other fun activities to do in three days, with Camping as well. If you are ever in the Netherlands around the first weekend of August, you should definitely check it out! Most of the attendants are in costume, from early age Viking to Golden Age of Piracy and fantasy creatures like Satyrs or just simply dressed in a Kilt haha
