The Carolina Renaissance Festival is a 16th century European style art and entertainment festival combining outdoor theater, circus entertainment, arts and crafts marketplace, a jousting tournament, a feast fit for royalty, and much much more.

The Carolina Renaissance Festival was introduced in 1994 with six acres of exhibits, attractions and entertainment. The event has grown into a 25 acre theme park filled with charming cottages and castles, kitchens and pubs, and a most unusual collection of people powered rides and games of skill.

The Carolina event has grown to be one of the largest of the Renaissance fairs nationwide. Tree lined lanes are filled with over 100 purveyors of crafts and food, and non-stop music and comedy shows are presented on 12 stages every event day.

This is one of the most interactive entertainment shows ever created with wonderful amusements and antics ongoing all around you! You can sit back and watch, or you can become a part of the action, surrounded by over 500 costumed characters roaming the festival village. The village lanes are full of peasants singing sea-faring songs and street entertainers surprising you with tall tales and tricks, each with a role to play.

You can experience the clashing of armor and the thundering of hooves daily with full combat jousts at the King's Tournament Arena.

Great experience for the whole family! Lots of exciting shows and musicians to keep both adults and kids entertained. Some fun rides as well (for an extra cost). Good selection of fair type food and sweets. The turkey legs are a must...tender, not chewy, and great flavor. Decent beer selection as well, though lines are frequently very long. Several bathrooms (porta-potties)are fairly easily accessible from anywhere on the fairgrounds. Lots of artisans and unique, hand crafted items for sale. The joust is well done but seats fill very quickly so head over about 30 minutes prior.

I LOVE this place. It's so wonderful, I go every year. The many free shows are worth the price of admission for sure, and the Artisan shops, costumes, and food are well worth the trip. There's truly something for everyone here, children and adults can enjoy lots of different activities. There are also opportunities to learn about the medieval lifestyle and watch the making of artisan crafts. There is also Jeff thing which is amazing. This place is great and it's a wonderful fall outing for the whole family!

This is a great place to go with your family, on a date, or a group trip. It makes you feel as though you're in medieval times. There are vendors selling great things everywhere you turn, from insence to swords to giant turkey legs and bread bowls. The staff is very friendly and seem to have a close bond. I would offer one piece of advice, make sure you have a lot of money you're willing to spend. Everything there is pretty heavily priced. Other than that, is a great place for people of all ages.

One of our favorites and we go every year! The actors are fantastic and truly make you feel part of another world. You'll taste great foods, good drinks, fun things to see and do as well as engage in your own treasure hunt in the various shops along the way. Make sure to take in the joust! Go and spend the day ~ you will not regret it! We've been going as a family for over 13 years and wouldn't miss it!

Lots of fun. The performers are experienced, entertaining, and charismatic. The food is also great. Only flaw is the prices: $25 per person, food is a bit overpriced, merchandise is obviously a bit expensive. However, there is a lot of free entertainment once you enter, like scheduled jousting tournaments, theatre actors, many musicians, and lots of high-quality costumes. Overall a nice experience.
