🏰✨ FAIRE FACT OF THE DAY! ✨🏰

Did you know that the average Renaissance Faire guest walks several miles during a day at the Faire?

Between exploring merchant booths, watching performers, cheering on knights, visiting the Faerie Realm, grabbing food, and discovering hidden surprises around the grounds, there’s always something around the next corner.

Which brings us to today’s important question…

⚔️ If you could spend ONE full day at the Faire with any historical figure, mythical creature, or fantasy character, who would it be and why?

Would you roam the marketplace with Merlin?
Challenge Robin Hood to an archery contest?
Share a turkey leg with a dragon?
Learn courtly manners from Queen Elizabeth herself?
