Washington Renaissance Festival is a recreation of a 16th century English Village. Named Revel Grove, it is set on a gorgeous 25-acre wooded site perfect for the occasion.

The village hosts craft and food booths, five pubs, ten major stages, a jousting arena and lots of games. Enjoy entertainment, crafts, food and all-around fun as you meander throughout this charming town.

Each morning the King welcomes visitors to the village and commences the day’s fun. You can approach this festival two ways—wander at your leisure and take it as it comes, or plan every minute so you can take advantage of every entertainment opportunity. It’s up to you.

As you amble through, stop to hear a musician. Watch a glass-blowing demonstration and then chow down on a turkey leg. You can hear the latest gossip from the fishmonger and watch the jousters charge.

Be sure to sample the wares of the crafts people and of course, take in some entertainment. Jugglers and magicians perform all over, and other amusing characters wander at will.

This is a journey back in time that you and your kids will find delightful and exciting. See you at the faire!
