A Demonstration Event (or, more commonly, Demo) is an educational event for the benefit of non-SCAdians. Usually held at schools or public libraries, the primary purpose of a demo is to display the arts and sciences of the medieval period. Demo events are one of the few SCA events open to mundanes, and are considered part of the duty of any SCA shire or barony.

Demos are always popular with children, and often give a local SCA group it's the primary method of exposure to the community. Many demos include armoured combat or fencing demonstrations.

SCAdians who participate in demos are advised to make their garb and armour as authentic as possible and to behave at all times in a courteous and chivalrous manner, as they are publicly representing their local group and the Society as a whole.
