Did you know that one of the biggest Renaissance fairs in the country takes place right in Huntersville every year? Well, if you haven’t set foot in the magical realm of the Carolina Renaissance Festival, it’s time to change that! The festival season started in September and will be coming to a close on Nov. 19. With everything the fair has to offer, you’d better grab your tickets before the festival season ends this month! What can you expect at the Renaissance Festival? Taking place every Saturday and Sunday from Sept. 30–Nov. 19, the festival’s ethereal world is open from 9:30 a.m.–5:30 p.m., promising endless entertainment. Be prepared for a Renaissance fair like no other, as the Carolina Renaissance Festival boasts over 500 costumed characters roaming the grounds, singing, dancing, jesting, and jousting their way into your heart. Live jousting will keep you on the edge of your seat, accompanied by roaring trumpets and cheering crowds. While you wait for the jousting matches (they take place three times a day), you can watch other live shows, including expert falconry, swimming mermaids (or sea faeries), barbaric tunes, circus performers, and magic shows to wow the whole family. Sixteen stages on the festival grounds provide a variety of entertainment throughout the day! Prepare for a feast fit for a king! Of course, food is one of the best parts of any festival! The Carolina Renaissance Festival cooks up the iconic massive turkey leg that has become a fan favorite for good reason. Along with the usual fare, indulge in the fair’s own chocolate shop, bakery, and King and Queen’s Kitchen with meats, stews, soups, and more! Once your belly is filled to the brim, it’s time to start shopping. The fair includes over 140 vendors at the Village Artisan Marketplace, featuring endless rows of art, jewelry, leather goods, and more! You can even indulge in services such as massages, costume rentals, hair braiding, henna art, and fortune telling. With tickets ranging from $20–$32, no experience can compare at this price. Head to the Carolina Renaissance Festival this November and travel to a whole different century before the season ends! ADMIRE AUTUMN AMID JOUSTING AND JESTING One of the 10 Best Festivals in the US!
