King Richard’s Faire, which is entering its 30th anniversary season, transports chainmail-clad time-travelers back to ye good olde days in an 80-acre realm with Renaissance-themed food, crafts, and live performances. Acrobats, jugglers, dancers, and fire-eaters fill eight stages of entertainment while traveling troubadours and wayfaring bards roam the festival grounds to delight guests with songs and stories. Venture over to the Royal Zoo to see strange and wondrous creatures such as lions, tigers, and jaguars, or marvel at the wide world of medieval sports at the Tourney field as knights joust, compete in games, and arm-wrestle grendels.

Guests can prove their might and skill in a plethora of games and rides (additional fees may apply), including axe throwing, king of the log, and Old English Scrabble. Guests can sample epicurean delights throughout the fairgrounds, such as shepherd’s pie, turkey legs, and kettle corn. In addition to the aforementioned merriment, a variety of talented artisans will be on hand to display their handcrafted wares, such as blown glass, hand-spun pottery, and Fabergé dragon eggs.

Last Year was my son’s first time to the fair. It was mine as well. I will definitely be returning. Kids love the storyline of the faire. The rides are perfect for the 2-12 year old range. The cast of knights and serfs are always in character. There’s axe throwing, pony rides, a human powered ferris wheel, tigers, comedy shows, jousting, sword fighting, jewelry, clothing, and more….

They have several food courts that cover a variety of tastes. Beer and wine is also plentiful.

The faire can be as much a day out for mom and dad as it is for the kids. Make sure to check their website for specific specials and events, as they vary greatly. Check out our video from last years faire…
