BRIGANTIAis an historical re-enactment society dedicated to the pagan tribes
of Britain
of the third to first centuries BC, also known as The Celts. Although our name comes from a tribe in the north of Britain, we are based around Portsmouth in Hampshire in the south of England and travel around the UK and Europe
performing public displays of combat and living history for fairs, museums,
schools, local councils and national heritage organizations.
Brigantia has done schools weeks, films,
TV appearances, documentaries, combat displays and domestic displays for
English Heritage, local councils, television companies, museums and fairs.
We are not a big
organisation, and usually field up to a dozen of our members at a show. If
a show needs more than this, then we can invite other Celtic groups to come
along. We have done shows with up to 40 fighters on the field.
