    Acts are amazing and the actors are excellent. Don't miss the mud show and the falconry. Food sucks..sassafras for a buck is good..need a designated smokers area tho. People smoking everywhere Ugh

    The Pub Crawl is lots of fun (and lots to drink!!)! Be sure to try some mead; it is the 16th century, after all.

    Must see...Sirena's show....those ladies are awesome. And go hungry...there are so many interesting foods to try. Portions are large and will feed at least 2 or 3 people!

    The jousting weapons & armor=cool. Mostly a gouge-fest. The food is weak & cheap plastic foreign merch is overpriced. There are a few true crafting folks making really nice stuff. Kudos to them!

    If you see a man with a giant mushroom cart talking about fairies, talk to him and you'll get a fun magic show

    yeah ... gotta go see vegetable justice by the jousting arena. Throwing tomatoes on a hot day at a funny insulter is worth every penny of $5!

    I had a lot of fun. They did a great job of making the place look like an old Renaissance period town. Some of the "actors" were jerks though, but I guess that's their job...
