Vic Medieval Fair Activities

What to take with you for Vic Medieval Winter Fair and Market

For the Vic day trip I pack a small 10L rucksack with a fleece jersey and if the weather forecast says rain, a waterproof poncho.

Take headphones for the Episcopal museum audio guide.

Wear comfortable shoes so that the uneven cobbled streets do not murder your ankles.
