What can I do at a Renaissance Faire?
Renaissance faires are filled with all sorts of fun activities. There are usually booths for food and shopping. They will provide a range of food and drinks for you to try. Many Ren faires will have live music and entertainment. You can dress up in medieval clothing or wear a fantasy outfit. Some faires have weekend themes for you to enjoy. Others follow a made-up storyline with different characters that interact with guests. Regardless, faires and festivals are intended for people to have fun.
What if I don’t see a Ren faire or LARP event near me in Alberta?
If you live near the US or a provincial border, don’t forget to look nearby. For example, you can check out the pages of British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Montana. These areas may have events that are close to you as well. We list events by the state or province. Many events are close to state or national borders.
In addition, SCA organizations will often have events that are intended for people from further away. Pennsic, a popular SCA event, is the best example of this. It includes people from across North America. You can contact local SCA or LARP organizers to find out if there are other events that you could attend.
