Bay Area Renaissance Festival
The Bay Area Renaissance Festival doesn’t obey the rules of the outside world. Instead, they bring the 16th century back in vivid tapestry-color—and though the celebration only lasts a few short weeks, the festival has become a beloved local tradition.
Guests can step through the gates and explore a recreated Renaissance-era setting. Nearby shops host more than 100 artisans, selling handmade wares. Tavern serves beer and bacon while entertainers continuously weave throughout the streets and perform on the stages. Comedy, music, and full-contact jousting unfolds to the delight of the crowd, which may even include Queen Elizabeth herself, assuming she remembers where she put her horse keys.
