Napoleonic Association: Events Diary

Saturday March 18th :

Research Section,

Spring Conference.

Please note the change of date. Venue - The National Army Museum in Chelsea. Paul Chamberlain will be issuing further details in the New Year.

The Reenactment Display Calendar for 1995 is now almost complete with a possible 6 UK events and 3 overseas trips. I will only publicise these as contracts are completed but I am able to confirm:

The Napoleonic Fair - see above.

Spring Bank Holiday - 27,28,29th May - Old Sarum.

An English Heritage event, centred on a siege of the historic hill fort near Salisbury.

Summer Bank Holiday - 26,27,28th August - Margam Country Park.

A complete Napoleonic weekend with many attractions plus a Battle spectacular. Margam is near Port Talbot in South wales. A superb venue - for those who were impressed at Weston Park this is very similar.

Waterloo 16,17,18 June 1995.

This major event comes round every 5 years and is not to be missed. A recreation of the famous battle in 1815 over the original terrain involving maybe some 2,000 reenactors. If you wish to go either as a reenactor (you will need to join an NA unit) or as a spectator and you havn’t already joined the NA please contact me as soon as possible.
