From our decorating committee:
We would love to have personal silk banners displayed at 12th Night! We would like to display them in the hotel windows, mostly, but if we have enough, we will display them elsewhere as well. Please drop them off at the drop-off point next to Gate when you arrive, and pickup will be Sunday morning at Gate.


Greetings, An Tir!

As we move forward toward the Winter Season and plans for one’s Masked Ball Finery for Twelfth Night are being considered, many are wondering what the theme of Saturday Night’s Masked Ball is.

The answer is: Your Favorite Moment in Time.

It can be as your favorite person, as your favorite moment in An Tir, Your Favorite Time frame that we have done in the past at 12th Night. What memory brings you joy?

In addition, as the theme for Twelfth Night this year is Heritage and Legacy, on Friday night, We would like to invite everyone to pull out your Tiaras (or fancy hats) and don your sparkle freckles to attend our Sovereigns’ evening court. They have requested all the sparkles!

Frequently asked questions:

If I get called up in Court, do I need to kneel?
Nope! While this is tradition, we also understand physical comfort and limitations. There is always a cushion and An Tir also uses a fantastic bench so that you can kneel or sit on that and you can even just stand! The Crown will 100% understand and you do NOT need to apologize or explain.

I’m brand new and getting called up as a Newcomer. How do I approach?
There will normally be several of you! You can walk up with a group or an escort. If you are solo an escort may magically appear and offer you an arm, you are not required to accept their arm! Usually people will bow or curtsy at the end of the chairs or approximately 10 feet from the Thrones and then a second, smaller one as they reach their final standing point.

How do I volunteer?
There will be a volunteer sign up sheet at Gate at the start of each day. Keep an eye out for updates on the Baronial website, Kingdom Calendar, or Facebook Group for opportunities as we draw closer to the event

I need a quiet space and do not have a hotel room!
We have you covered! We have set aside space in quiet area of the hotel for a quiet room. This room will have a variety of options for sitting and is near our staff room if you are in need of additional assistance. If you get turned around, look for signage or go to Gate for assistance.
