Bardic Bedlam is an event filled with challenges and classes to delight and engage bards, patrons of bards and fans of bards. If you can say "bard" you'll find something to enjoy here!

Bardic Bedlam now includes archery! Thanks to Lady Lora Ann Ros for being an archer-bard (or a bardic archer).

There will be fighting at Bardic Bedlam! Thanks to Lady Amba Allrasystir, the backbone of Aston Tor.

The Shire of Standing Stones will present a lunch Inn. Good food! Reasonable prices!
