November 2, 2017


The Carolina Renaissance Festival
is a medieval amusement park, a 12-stage theater, a 25-acre village marketplace, an interactive circus, an arts and crafts fair, a jousting tournament & a feast fit for royalty - all rolled into one non-stop, day-long family adventure! As sure as the changing color of the leaves, for eight consecutive weekends in the fall the festival brings a big dose of cheer, trumpet fanfare, clashing armor and giant roasted turkey legs. Read on to learn more!

This is one of the most interactive entertainment shows ever created with wonderful amusements and antics ongoing all around you! Enjoy non-stop entertainment, including comedy, music, dancing, circus performers, jousting knights on horseback, and much more! Experience the clashing of armor and the thundering of hooves daily with full combat jousts at the King's Tournament Arena. Sit back and relax or become a part of the action as you are surrounded by over 500 costumed characters roaming the festival village! The tree-lined lanes filled with charming cottages and castles, kitchens and pubs, are full of peasants singing sea-faring songs and street entertainers surprising you with tall tales and tricks, each with a role to play.

Introduced in 1994, this 16th-century European style art and entertainment festival has grown into one of the largest Renaissance fairs nationwide. It's where imagination, fantasy, and history burst to life. A place where adults can feel and act like children while children are treated as royalty. A magical realm where you will forget about your daily cares and enjoy the magic of a simpler time and place. A time-traveling escape like no other!
