Reenactors will be in costume demonstrating archery, cookery, spinning and weaving and there will be demonstration bird flights by Icarus Falconry.
Visitors will also be able to follow a ‘Red Carpet' trail to discover famous people connected to Northampton and take part in a competition to win a family ticket to see The Gruffalo at the Royal & Derngate.
