10:00 AM – 8:00 PM
Coolidge Park
150 River St, Chattanooga, TN

Kingdom: The Kingdom of Aldston (Old English for Old Stone – a nod to Chattanooga’s name meaning a rock coming to a point/end of the mountain)
About the Faire: The King and Queen of Aldston are hosting a Tournament to determine the next in line for the throne. Their children have proven unsuitable for the task. Everyone has heard a wildly different rumor about why the true heirs are… incompatible with the throne. The Prince has taken up with an entire herd of Centaurs. The Princess once wandered into the woods at night and made a contract with the Fae for her secondborn (her firstborn is already contracted to a Bog Witch – nasty business, really). Whatever the rumor may be, it always changes depending on who you speak to. Even more damning still, none of their children have come to the gathering.
