Huzzah! Prepare to be Swept Away to a Time of Enchantment at the Carolina Renaissance Festival!

Calling all adventurers, rogues, and merrymakers!

The Carolina Renaissance Festival beckons you on a journey to a bygone era, a world brimming with knights in shining armor, enchanting fairies, and captivating characters who will transport you straight into a magical 16th-century village!

Step through the gates of Fairhaven and be greeted by the sights and sounds of a bustling marketplace. Marvel at the artistry of skilled craftspeople, test your might in games of skill, and witness the thrill of a jousting tournament where brave knights clash in a display of courage and chivalry!

Here's a taste of the merriment that awaits:

  • Feast like royalty on giant turkey legs, succulent sausages, and delightful pastries.

  • Witness the grandeur of a joust and cheer on your favorite knight as they battle for glory!

  • Be mesmerized by acrobatic feats and laugh along with hilarious jesters and captivating actors.

  • Explore the whimsical world of fairies and pirates during special themed weekends.

  • Channel your inner Robin Hood by test your archery skills or soaking a grumpy peasant with a tomato (with good-natured fun, of course!).

This isn't just a festival, it's an immersive experience! Dress up in your most creative garb (or come as you are!), wander the cobblestone streets, and lose yourself in the magic of a time gone by.
