Renaissance Faire and Festival Scenes Revelry and good times abound at Renaissance Faires and Fesitvals across the country. It is a chance to dress up as knight or lady, rogue or wench and have a merry time. Here are some scenes from faires and festivals in recent years to remind you of what it is like. If have been to a faire or festival, feel free to post a photo here and share it with the other dashing blades and sultry damsels of ye olde faire!
by Renaissance Faire Pictorial Fair Tournaments Too Entertainment at these faires and festivals can include tournaments of jousting, archery or other competitions, each colorfully conducted in the spirit of knighthood. Some of the less physical competitons such as archery are open to fair-goers.
Renaissance Festival Kings, Queens & Royal Courts It would not be a true faire or festival without a reigning lord or lady and possibly some members of their royal court. Their elaborate costumes, jewelry, hairstyles and accessories are sometimes a show in themselves.
Dubuque Renaissance Faire Friends Are Faire Play Whether you come with friends, meet-up at the faire, or make new friends among the merry fun-seekers you find there, it all comes down to a great shared experience. A day of pleasure is always at hand. And if it leads to new friends, that is all to the good, is it not?
