Event Info

The Festival of Floralia is upon us! The Knowne World Courtesans call you to a celebration of all things Roman in the Known World! To gain entry, dress to impress in your finest 1st c. Roman garb. We will delight your senses with amphorae of wine, delicacies fit for the Emperor, contests of strength, beauties abundant, and bounteous sensory delights. All in celebration of Summer!

Where: Courtesan Camp and Strawberry Fields (block B06 off eLeri Lane between Ankara and Visby Vale – across the battlefield and above handicapped parking)
When: Monday, August 7th at 9pm

Requirements:
*18+ (no entry without ID!)
**Early Imperial Roman dress (no pants, no Celtic garb, no plaid, no intrusive modernity – thank you for helping us create a transportive atmosphere!)
*a coin (Free!) – there are only 400 available so get them while they last!
*no phone use outside of checking the time permitted inside the camp (we will have a designated photo area outside)

Don’t forget your mug!

To receive a coin:
Once again Medieval Medallions has crafted gorgeous reproduction brothel coins for our guests. Join us at 2:30 p.m. on Sunday, August 6 at the gate to Courtesan Camp (B06) to claim yours. Look for the red and gold tent with the red and gold hart pennants flying above. We will hand out one coin per adult in the queue. Please plan accordingly and send a representative for yourself if necessary. Out of respect for your fellow Scadians, please do not “hold” spots in line for latecomers. Coins are available on a first-come, first-served basis.

This year coins will be collected at the gate and replaced with a marked wristband. The opportunity to purchase a coin to retain as a keepsake will be available starting Tuesday, August 8th at Prismatic Scales (shop #123) and at Courtesan Camp for $10 apiece. This is to help us recoup some of the costs of the party and ensure that we’re able to continue to host it each year!

We will be accepting donations to help offset the costs of the party both in advance and during the festivities. To donate, visit our PayPal here. (Please select “Friends & Family” when you donate so that we do not lose a portion of your generous support to fees.) If you would like to become a regular patron, please visit our Patreon here!
