BBC NewsThe free event will be held around the town centre, with food stalls, guided walks and street theatre among the activities on offer.
Wakefield Council said it was "really excited" for the return of the event, which runs from 10:00 to 16:00 BST. While many settlements disappeared after troops moved on, he said Castleford became a centre for trade and manufacturing in Roman England due to its road and river links. Excavations have also revealed the town was involved in the large-scale, specialist production of spoons and water flasks, though, despite numerous moulds being uncovered, not a single spoon has been found, Mr Evans added.
