2025 is taking Carnage to a whole New Level
The Palmetto Knights present:
Carolina Carnage FEST
In addition to the Largest Buhurt Event in the Western Hemisphere, we are hosting the National Championships to decide who gets to go Fight in Visegrad, Hungary in the World Championships.
Next up we have switched some gears and adding a FESTival experience. Yes there will be Turkey legs, Yes there will be over 30+ vendors, Yes we will have a Costume Contest on Saturdy around 1 pm.
Here is the Sign up for the Medieval Themed Costume Contest
The Sport Community has shown their love for Carolina Carnage in a way we were completely unprepared for. This past year we broke all the records with over 450 competitors attending the Event. Only but a small handful of the World Championship Events have ever been bigger than Carnage was this past year.!!! WOOHOO!!!
Last year we had The Northern Wolves out of UK, Beserkers out of Australia, North Blood and Wendigos out of Canada, and various duelists and other competitors from Mexico.
Additionally we will be focusing on bringing more of a renfair experience to the event.
