Event - Romeinenfestival Tongeren (2025)
Precisely a decade ago, during a rainy weekend, there was a Viking market  in Tongeren and I was exited for this initiative by the Gallo-Roman museum. Alas it took me 10 years and living in Tongeren  for half a decade, to cover another such event by this museum.      Luckily the Roman festival ( Romeinenfestival ) was worth the wait. A Roman market with historical artisans, workshops, free museum entrance, food, 50 re-enactors, including legionairs from several legions, periods and provinces and the thing everybody remembers: gladiator fights in the streets.  And the weather was much better.
