Marsden is a village in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It gained notoriety shortly after the impact of the Buzzard Coulee meteorite near the village in November 2008.
Marsden is also the host of the annual Quad War, a Society for Creative Anachronism event. It is a Renaissance/Middle Ages full costume festival and war. It attracts approximately 500 people, mostly society members from Alberta and Saskatchewan. It is usually held in the first week of August.
