Boar's Head & Yule Log Festival
The festival is a merging of two stories that share the message of good, and knowledge of Christ’s teachings will prevail over evil. This medieval festival was originally based on an old legend of a student in Oxford, who, while studying in the forest, was attacked by a wild boar. The student used his book, a volume of Aristotle’s works, to slay the boar. When the church adopted this story it became a symbol of good over evil.
The story of the Boar’s Head, the legend of the Yule Log, the story of King Wenceslas, the angelic message to the shepherds, the journey and gifts of the Magi, and more are woven together and lead us to the adoration of the Christ Child.
Performances are free. Limited premium seating is available with ticket purchase.
Performances are January 3rd and 4th, 3pm and 5pm.
