Kristin Singleton The Renaissance fair is pure immersion and downright fun. There is nothing better than watching your loved

one getting hit with a mallet while wearing a kilt and chomping into a turkey leg. My favorite part is the end of the day sitting in

Bobby Rowe What other place can you go back to a simpler time before internet and television? If you had a disagreement with

someone you just challenged them to a joust. Where you could drink mead for hours and tell tales of your adventures. If you like

game of thrones you should come live how it was during those times at the Renaissance fair. LikeShow more reactions

Brandon Giddens I like coming to see the look on my children's faces as we park. Their looks go from boredom from the long

car ride to wonder and excitement in a matter of seconds. My reason is seeing them smile proudly after being knighted by the

Queen and then cheer loudly for their favorite knight in the joust. There are many reasons to come, but my favorite is asked if we

can come back again soon as they sing songs from Hey Nunnie Nunnie.
