Savor the flavor of the Olde Worlde, as the Shire favors Her Majesty with the tastes and entertainments of fantastic and far away lands.

Serve and Protect Weekend • September 6-7
(Sales at Castle Gates Only. Not available through E-Ticket)

Her Majesty will honor all those who serve and protect by offering a special 30% discount to the admission price to the Faire. This offer will extend to all Active Military, Reserve Members, Retirees, Police, Professional and Volunteer Firefighters, Emergency Medical Technicians, and VFW Members and their immediate families.

Everyday courageous individuals put themselves into danger in order to protect American citizens and our country. Without those who have made their careers to serve and protect there would not be “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” These individuals, who make extreme sacrifices, seldom get the recognition and gratitude that they deserve.

In an effort to express our appreciation for all that these everyday heroes do for America, the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire is offering a discounted admission into the festival on September 6-7, $19.95, when they present their valid service identification (i.e. ID cards, badges, etc.).

This discounted ticket price will be available at the front gate of the festival only and will also apply to the immediate family of the valid ID holder. Those admitted into the Faire with this special discount can also enter to win a family vacation.

Special Merriements THIS WEEKEND!

In addition to all the regular entertainments on our 13 stages and of course the biggest stage, our 32 acre 16th Century Village and Marketplace, we bring you these additional entertainments for your enjoyment!

Fushu Daiko

Her Majesty is pleased to welcome this marvelous group to the Shire. Fushu Daiko practices joyously in the pursuit of ever-increasing mastery of taiko drumming, understanding and appreciation in the way of taiko, Japanese culture and all of life.

"They are called Fushu Daiko and they beat their drums in perfect unison, pounding and rattling a fierce rhythm that became almost mesmerizing. Exploding through the muggy air, the sound was loud enough to wake the dead - which was the point!!!" - The Palm Beach Post
