NOVEMBER FESTIVAL LUDI PLEBEII

by Angelia Rees, Vestalis Maxima

Our November festival is the Ludi Plebeii - the original Ludi Plebeii were games instituted in commemoration of the reconciliation between the patricians and plebians after the plebians removed to the Aventine. The central focus of the Ludi was the Feast of Jupiter, on the Ides of November, this date being sacred to Him. In our Ludi Plebeii, we will have 2 days of games and feasting in Jupiter's honour - so please join us for these fun-filled events! There are even chances to win prizes!
