More from the organisers: The ancient festival comes back to life at the Aquincum Museum at an event organised by the Friends of Aquincum.

Young florists will decorate the Museum and Archaeological Park with flower displays inspired by Roman art. Visitors can explore the crafts of the ancient world and discover the daily lives of Roman soldiers, gladiators, Germanic and Celtic warriors and watch their combat re-enactments.
