Duke it out with your friends!

The Harvard Fall Festival is ready to give you the best options for your money. In addition to the outstanding live performances, delicious food, and ground shaking fireworks the Harvard Fall Festival has three events that you do not want to miss out on.

We have gone above and beyond to bring you these unusual fair activities.

Below are the names of the games and how to play them. Start Practicing.

Log Jousting

 Two opponents sit cross legged from each other on a log suspended four feet in the air. They are each armed with pillows. The contestant that remains on the log wins. Three rounds are fought.

Knife & Axe Throwing

Three throwing knifes or three throwing axes are thrown by the contestants at a wooden target. If the required number of knifes or axes are "stuck" into the wood the contestant wins a prize.

Trebuchet Target Practice

 The contestant loads their own projectile (a bag of about three pounds of lawn lime) into a trebuchet (medieval siege engine once used for knocking down castle stone walls). He or She then winds up the trebuchet and aims it at targets on a castle wall in the distance. The contestant "fires" the trebuchet. If the contestant is successful in striking the target he or she shall win a prize.

There will be a modest entry fee charged for each of the above three events. Height restrictions may apply to enter some of the events.
