I looked forward to fall every year because of the Renaissance Fair. The first time my family and I went, we rented costumes that was at the front gate after we realized we could wear costumes at the fair. After that, it became my family's tradtion to go every year and it was a must to go in costume. I loved going every year and seeing all the costumes and stores. It was also customary for me and my family to find an item or piece of clothing to add on to our costumes. The food is great, especially the turkey legs! 🤤 The entertainment was everywhere! You can even have your birthday and a wedding there where you get escorted by the king's guard! And around noon, you get to see the parade of the stores, groups, and others you see around the fair! Each weekend that it's open has a theme from fairies to pirates to barbarians to knights. It even runs trough Halloween so the stores and staff walking around have candy to give out to trick or treaters. And the last weekend it's open is christmas themed to welcome the holiday. As the years went by it grew in popularity which unfortunately meant more drunkards, so if you plan to take children with you, beware! Because you will see and hear things that are adult themed.

I've been going here since I was a wee lad and I'm so glad you showcased it and enjoyed yourself. I even worked here one year and got to be a Tomato Guy! It was fun. If you and anyone else wants a bit of advice on what is the best weekend to go if you aren't drawn to any one weekend in particular, the last weekend, Celtic Christmas, is by far the best. Not only do they put out a bunch of great Christmas decorations, but the weekend is 3 days instead of 2, you have the best chance of it being cool (or even cold), and lots of stores have stuff on sale. Hope you come back for another go!

Love the Steampunk Emporium shoutout!! I got one of their leather hip bags (in a style they no longer sell, actually) 10 years ago and it's held up amazingly! I wear it every day in place of a purse since it fits my phone, wallet, and keys and I'm not the type to carry a lot with me. Despite daily wear it only has needed a few minor repairs - replacing some rivets that bent after 6 years and redoing some stitching this year that had begun to unravel. So if you want a bag that gets you plenty of compliments and lasts a decade, I highly recommend them! That said, always fun to see someone new to permanent structure ren fests visit one - part of the reason they aren't open year-round is because the vendors travel to fests all over the country! in fact, the texas ren fest overlaps entirely with the carolinas ren fest, and it starts just after the second-biggest (by attendance size), the minnesota fest, which is also my home fest!

My next purchases will be to become the Wizard Merlin from the Excalibur movie. The two major pieces I need to have hand made are the Merlin's Silver Skull cap, and then Merlins Staff will have some high tech abilities to appear like I am magic casting. Hazar!!!!!!!

This is very similar to the Bristol Renaissance Faire in Bristol, WI, though apparently over twice the acreage. But does that equate to more events, or just more spread out over a larger area. I suspect the latter. Though it would definitely be fun to compare the two. Maybe Texas has more food options? That would be nice to have at Bristol as the lines are always excessively long.

It's certainly spread out but if there isn't a shop or theater then there is a garden or chapel or chessboard, there is stuff everywhere and as you saw with the jousting, the venues are enormous. Yes, there are a ton of food and drink options and the lines are usually reasonable.

The whole point of the faires if you are not shopping is to watch the entertainment; bands, comedy troupes, acrobats...these guys travel from faire to faire and honestly make their living as entertainers. My local faire in Georgia is smaller than this one, though one of the largest in the southeast, and in 2 days we could not manage to see all the shows on the schedule.

I would love to watch a Renaissance play of a modern novel or movie. That would be dope.

I live in Fort Worth but went to Houston several times, never heard of this place. Now I know where my next weekend trip will be!
