Journey to Middle-earth with the German Tolkien Society’s (Deutsche Tolkien Gesellschaft) Tolkien Day (Tolkien Tag) this weekend, June 14-15, 2014. As reported on the German Tolkien Society’s site and on thetolkienist.com, Tolkien Day will offer a variety of activities, workshops, food, cosplay, and more, all focused on exploring and illuminating Tolkien’s world and work.

This year’s Tolkien Day will be held in the village of Pont, a suburb of Geldern in the Lower Rhine region of Germany. Visitors will be able to immerse themselves in Middle-earth as they listen to talks by Tolkien experts, shop in Middle-earth themed shops, play games, try out their archery skills, listen to music, and eat enough to make even the hungriest Hobbit happy.
