Renaissance Festival Courses


A Renaissance Festival is a recreation of a historical period, usually the European Middle Ages, and oftentimes a celebration of a country’s national heritage. The Renaissance Festival combines elements of theater, costuming, artisanship, education, music, feasting and revelry to create an immersive and interactive experience for festival-goers. One of the biggest draws for a Renaissance Festival is its costumed participants and vendors. Participants—or ‘rennies’—often create their own costume from a variety of historically accurate materials, from fabrics and leathers to armor and weaponry. The costumes not only make the festival seem more authentic, but also creates an atmosphere of role-playing, with patrons often taking on the character or persona of the time period. Many vendors also make period-specific goods, such as cooking utensils, jewelry, pottery, and clothes. As well as costuming and goods, Renaissance Festivals often include a variety of performances and educational activities. Jousting tournaments, acrobatics, theater, musicians, jugglers, and magicians are all common entertainment seen at a Renaissance Festival. While some performance groups travel around to multiple Renaissance festivals throughout the year, others stay at the same location each year and create the same show. Additionally, to appease parents and educators, many festivals also feature interactive workshops along with educational lectures to engage guests with the history and culture of the festival. A Renaissance Festival is such a beloved event because it creates a unique and exciting way to escape into another time period and learn about different cultures. It also gives guests the opportunity to be active participants in the role-playing and festive atmosphere of the festival. If you have never attended a Renaissance Festival, you owe it to yourself to experience the one-of-a-kind atmosphere for yourself.
