Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival
Commissioned by the Committee
Beefeaters - Ceremonial Guardian at the Tower of London
Join us for the 64th presentation of the Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival, a Cleveland Christmas tradition. Although “festival” is in the name, this is a processional presentation adapted from an ancient custom, dating back to the 1300’s when it became a part of the Christmas celebrations in the great manor houses of the Middle Ages. This volunteer production, is a multi-sensory Elizabethan Christmas experience with pageantry and music that combines the representation of ancient ceremonies associated with the winter solstice and Christian traditions associated with the birth of Christ. Two performances 2p & 4:30p. Free admission.
