Unfortunately, not the real ones!
Ardent fans of JRR Tolkien's The Hobbit, recreated the epic fight sequence that happens after the Thirteen Dwarves of Erbor refuse to share the gold captured from the dragon Smaug, which is also known as 'The Battle of the Five Armies' in the book.
Although there was no Smaug or real Orcs, this reenactment was a testament to the ardent fans of Tolkien's work.

The costumes and the make-up probably were not not as good as the film, but that did not deter the enthusiasm of the fans in anyway. (Photo courtesy - Reuters)
