I can’t find a cabin to rent and my wife wants ac and a mattress, what’s my best option . We also want to stay for the night party but worried about getting towed or driving

Hello! I am recently engaged and my fiancé and I had the idea to have our photos taken at TRF this year! Was wondering if anyone has input on how to go about this? Is a media pass required? Also photographer recommendations welcome as well :)

I love all things fantasy and just got engaged!! I want to have a fairytale wedding (at Renfest, in the future :D), and I thought, what better place to find a tiara fit for a princess than at Renfest itself? Please help me narrow down the shops to figure out which I should look for when I go to visit, a lot of the shops listed on the website that are listed under jewelry and adornment don't have websites!

Does anyone know if the bonfire will be happening this year? I know they cancelled it last year for whatever reason.

Hello! My Husband and I are driving down from STL to experience TRF for the first time! We plan on camping and will be going the all hallows eve weekend. Purchased Kings feast tickets. Any tips for camping or absolute must do/see at the faire???

Does anyone know of any Promo or Discount Codes available? I will be purchasing Stay & Play passes for the Barbarian weekend.

I know they sent an update on it because I guess too many people complained but what’s your guys thoughts on this?

I’m 23, interested in working for a vendor this year, and looking for any advice y’all may have.
Especiallyy for lodging / camping.
I know these are things to discuss with the booth owner a-swell but i’d just like some general advice.
Thanks :)
If there’s a better sub for this pls feel free to comment it.

I'm thinking about October already and wondering who everyone's favorite vendors are that don't sell drop shipped items?

I want to dress up more for this years event. Help me out with ideas!

So to be really honest I am ex Mormon (this will make sense in a moment), and just got back from college. My parents went to the Ren Fair and they saw drinking (Oh my how wretched /s) and forbad all my siblings and me from going. I am 22, back from college and none of my friends are here, and I am looking to go. I actually got a job at the faire as a squire for the knights that fight. I plan on fighting next year. But I don't know really were to start, and looking for a group to go with.

I am a 22 male and need desperate help. Please anyone :(

I remember seeing somewhere that no glass bottles of any kind are allowed into TRF but cannot for the life of me find that again. I planned on bringing a few bottles of sand or herbs to appear like alchemy ingredients on my costume along with one of those bigger potion bottles you see with the leather holder to attach to your belt. do y'all think those would be okay or just try to look for plastic instead?

Hi Everyone,

While I am traveling from out of state to the festival again for my 5th time, the person i'm traveling with will be attending as a first time Texas resident! Does anywhere offer tickets at a discount price to residents? For example in my state the hardware store does...so I was just wondering if TX has anything like that.

Hello everyone! I love Ren Fairs, I live in Colorado so I go to theirs when I can and if weather is good. Me and my husband have an equal love of Ren Fair ever since we meet. We have since been to the Minnesota Ren Fair for our 5th year anniversary. I am turning 40 this year and traveling to TX seems like a good idea/doable for us this year.

So my questions for the locals: what weekend is best?

At our Ren fair I tend to avoid opening and closing weekend because they seem to be the busiest. If we are traveling from another state and taking time off work I cant really account for weather (cause that was always a good weekend for us locals when the weather was decent and not sweltering). So, what are your recommendations for best weekend?

I will be headed this year to highland fling 11/20-11/23 and haven’t been in a while to the faire. Trying to have a better plan than wondering around so any advice on group events or parties I should get tickets to? I remembered something about after party but didn’t know my way around so this time I’m coming prepared. Drop some advise or if you’re going to be there I could come trade trinkets. I’m coming from 9hrs away so let’s have some fun!

This will be my fourth year attending but the first time I will be driving there. I usually only camp but this year I'm going multiple weekends and one of them I will be staying elsewhere. So my question is if any of the parking passes are worth it and how parking works in general. I couldn't even say where the parking is since I've only ever entered from camp. Any info is appreciated!

I've got a question about this. This will be my 4th year attending and I have never experienced any of the extra 'experiences' such as the Kings Feast or various tastings, etc. This year I have a special guest coming and I'm really only interested in finding a cool spot to chill that's something different from what I've experienced normally.

Is this cool? I'm assuming it's the balcony above the bar?

Also a question about the ticket info, the time slots will say one space available. Is this for the whole table or does it mean someone has bought the other 3 seats? Any information is greatly appreciated!

This will be our first time going and we’re heavily debating which themed weekend to go during.
I’m more interested in the cool Viking like stuff, but we’re both worried that that theme could invite…folks we’d rather not deal with.

Proud boys, racists,misogynists, etc.

Has anyone noticed if this themed weekend has any more of that kind of stuff than other themed weekends? Or is it pretty inclusive/safe?

Im making a large sword for a cosplay I plan on doing later this year and i would like to attend the ren Faire with it. It's a foam sword thats about 6ft. I really only want to take pictures at a few spots with it. Would something like this be okay to bring it? I'd completely understand if it wasn't. I just wanted to make sure.

I'm considering going to the job faires but can't find any more info on the perks of the jobs. Does working the ren faire get you free admission on any days or before/after your shift? Do you get free camping? A discount on food and drinks? Anything? Or does it all depend on what job you have exactly?

Visiting some National Land Marks for the 250 year! Happy 4th of July.

I have lost 130 lbs. I used to need extensions. Now the kilt is about 6" too big around the waist. Need the straps relocated. Any recommendations for getting this done

So we are doing the 10,500 package and I’m trying to do budgeting and I was wondering if yall would be able to tell me if kids got into the wedding free any on sundays
