Echoes Of History

Echoes Of History

Don't miss the amazing Echoes of History show at Whitehouse Farm Living Memorial Gardens, Rettendon. The Gardens contain memorials dedicated to servicemen who have served or still serving. We have historic military vehicles from bikes to massive trucks that make the tanks look small! There's so much more for the kids to get involved in, as well as all the stuff to watch, see and explore, there's also the fair, Jive dancing, live music, family and collectors' stalls and many other activities. What better way is there for the younger generation to learn about our history than to hear about it from those who made it our wonderful veterans who will also be in attendance. In addition to an amazing turn out of history display groups depicting life from many periods and nationalities, these historical re-enactors go to enormous lengths to represent the subjects they portray as accurately and authentically as possible providing you with a rare opportunity to see how people of different nationalities and time periods lived and to get close to the weapons, equipment and atmosphere of the time, they are always happy to answer questions or demonstrate equipment so don't be afraid to ask!
Arena activities take place throughout the day, from battles, firepower demos and historic equipment in motion, allowing you to get close to a military convoy, tanks and armoured vehicles as well as see and hear them roaring around the arena and learn a little about their history. As always, there will be our re-enactment displays and demonstrations - and don’t forget to join in the kids marching drill. For many the highlight is the multi period battle where reenactors from
different periods and outfits conduct a light hearted “battle” with everything from frying pans to water pistols!!
Show time is 10am to 5pm on both days
Tickets for 2023 are priced at £15 for adults and children go FREE! for either Saturday or Sunday
