One of the best weekend renaissance faires in the region, the 15th Annual Village Renaissance Faire, is a mere 10 days aways

One of the best weekend renaissance faires in the region, the 15th Annual Village Renaissance Faire, not only achieved new heights in attendance exceeding 9,000 and performers including the new flying birds of prey, but it also earned nationwide recognition by Renaissance magazine. Building on its success, as it has done every year since its inception, the faire returns in the heart of Bucks County Pennsylvania with all performers returning and new exciting acts, themes and merchants joining them for what will surely be the best year yet.

Although most would be amazed at the feature offerings of this one weekend faire that boasts, flying birds of prey, jousting, trebuchet launching, and firebreathing all which occur twice daily, and supplement its, annual Original storyline Living Literature performed by Period Productions, the most impressive compliment is that all of these performances are offered at a pittance of $5 a head, and ALL proceeds benefit the local library. One would be remiss of course, not to mention to many other fine performances offered through its archery shows, living chess, live steele, public punishment, celtic dance, mystical east, puppet shows, story-telling, and lyric stage, which all not only offer ongoing entertainment through-out the day, but also the faire’s hallmark of entertainment—incredible interactive shows followed by free lessons and interactions with performers one on one.

A moment of Fun and Fantasy will always be but a step away. As the faire has even scheduled its entertainment so that as patrons walk between shows they can gaize at the Aerialists flying every hour. The weekend merriment does not end there as actors interact along all the faireways as visitors explore the fine artisans and guildwork offered for sale. Patrons are treated to blacksmiths, spinners, weavers, and woodworkers along artisans rowe as they head toward our Living History pavilion featuring multiple SCA shires.

Wee ones, or those young at heart, are never far from entertainment. As the faire is criss-crossed with a variety of activities and games, such as free crafts and loaner garb, medieval games, games of skill, child knighting, Merlin’s Mystical World of Inflatables, pony rides, carriage rides, fight-a-knight, lady’s Penny’s, and a huge interactive play area that allows them to recreate all aspects of the faire in a family friendly environment.

The faire welcomes one, and welcomes all, but just for one weekend every fall. You would be remiss if this is a fare you miss, see you there.
