Gladiators battle at Chiltern Open Air Museum On Whitsun Bank Holiday weekend 26 - 27 May from 10 am to 5 pm, Roman Gladiators will be invading Chiltern Open Air Museum. Watch fearsome gladiators in action as a team of criminals, barbarians and other prisoners of war, disgraced soldiers and thrill seekers fight for the entertainment of the crowds and the Emperor. Who will live, and who will die: you decide! Meet the costumed re-enactors and learn about life in the 1st century AD with gladiatorial displays taking place at 12 and 3pm. The gladiators will be brought to life by Britannia, who will be demonstrating the excitement and brutality of life in the late Roman period. Britannia have worked on over 150 TV and film projects, including Ridley Scott’s Gladiator and CBBC’s Horrible Histories. The Roman Gladiators event is a thrilling action packed and educational day for the entire family. Be warned there will be (fake) blood! Find out more www.coam.org.uk... See more >
