About the event
Shop more than 60 artisan vendors offering everything from custom-made jewelry to pottery, weaponry, and Renaissance garb! Catch befuddling feats of magical skill, fierce sword-fighting acts, musical performances, and of course, the Royal Joust! There’s plenty for children, too. Sing songs with The Charmings — princesses from yore — come dressed for a knighting ceremony and a separate costume contest, or just spend some time in the sun playing in the Kid’s Kingdom – a land of peace and imagination. Enjoy craft beer and cider? Add a pub crawl to your experience and be entertained by charming and hilarious guides as you sample different brews from Indian Ladder Cidery and Brewery in a hand-made collectible mug.
The crawl walks you through the brewing process whose ingredients are all grown and brewed less than a mile from where they are poured.
