Switzerland's largest Roman living-history festival, held at Augusta Raurica near Basel — one of the best-preserved Roman sites north of the Alps. A typical edition draws 500+ costumed participants and around 20,000 visitors over two days, with gladiator combat, a legionary march, an emperor's procession, dancers and craftspeople throughout the open-air site.
