The Guilds

Traditionally groups of friends would get together to pick a theme for their disguise, help each other to make costumes and masks and devise their contribution to the Revels – songs, games, satire whatever.
It’s easy – pick a theme and form a Guild.

Each year we lose some but gain new ones.

The oldest surviving guilds are The Cornmarket Revellers and The ‘Gyptians.
