What can I do at a Renaissance faire in New Jersey?

Renaissance faires are filled with all sorts of fun activities. There are usually booths for food and shopping. Many Ren faires will have live music and entertainment. You can dress up in medieval clothing or wear a fantasy outfit. Most of all, have fun!

What’s the difference between a LARP event and an SCA event?

LARP stands for live-action roleplaying. SCA stands for Society for Creative Anachronism. LARP events can cover a wide range of aesthetics and styles. They can include LARP battles. Usually, LARPers will fight with foam weapons at their battles. Meanwhile, in the USA, SCA groups will often reenact historical scenes. This can include battles like the famous Pennsic. When members of SCA groups reenact, they often have high standards of historical accuracy when it comes to the clothing, weapons, and armour used.
