Looking for fun for the whole family? The Maryland Renaissance Festival is a unique annual event, a recreation of a 16th century English village with crafts, food, live performances on 8 stages, a jousting arena and lots of games. At the Maryland Renaissance Festival you'll see a fire-eater, watch jousting in full armor, marvel at jugglers and magicians, listen to music and choral groups and much more. The festival runs weekends August 27 - October 23, 2011.
