Whidbey Ren Faire

09/05/2026

Now that they have officially made their debut, we don’t have to keep secrets anymore! Thank you so much to Fife Symington and Gavin McFarlane of Vale Farms and their crew for allowing us use of what was formerly the Fakkema family’s Beach View Farm in our previous season, WRF26.

It has been such a joy to work with both the Fakkemas and Vale Farms. We are very excited for the new chapters the change of hands has signaled at the beloved property we called Mysthaven for the past two years. Because these gentlemen saw something in us, and gave us an opportunity, we have Whidbey Ren Faire still today. We are still on a quest for a new property for WRF27.

Nominations for Best of Whidbey are currently on until September 15th! Write in or nominate your favorite business, barista, etc today. 🏰 Follow this link: https://www.whidbeynewstimes.com/contests/best-of-wnt/?fbclid=IwRlRTSAUJD8NwZG9mAWZkaWQWUN0IxJTYvpooaeis9XaOXm_sCWhyAWV4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkCjY2Mjg1NjgzNzkAAR7r_mDAIYq938iub49mYf_VA42MV-9XQANseKdTdstPCXxGKGYa3lRB6suKjQ_aem_YrnTtt-0jTCAYJvsfvzQLg

May the future hold nothing but success!

We need your support now more than ever! Do we have your sword?

Our deepest gratitude goes to Whidbey News-Times for covering this important chapter in our story. 🏰

The Whidbey Ren Faire is searching for a new place to host its 2027 festival.

Investing in Mysthaven means that we can re-invest our time and resources into crafting better events for our patrons each year instead of reinventing the wheel time and time again. Without a permanent venue, Whidbey Ren Faire faces real challenges to continue operating. We are hopeful that this campaign will be more accessible than our previous fundraiser on Eventeny.
