The Reddit Renaissance Festival FAQ

Wandering the Maryland Renaissance Fair in my Lawbringer kit when i got approached by u/PLKnight complimenting my armor. Did a doubletake as his Cathedral set was something i drooled over when they shared it online. Really Happy to see the craftmanship in person.

Got some really cool visitors. Outfits this year are great.

Hey guys!

This is my second year bringing trinkets to gift, this year I got really excited and made very involved trinkets to gift. Only bringing 15 or so.

That being said - I read a post this morning where someone was frowning upon people bringing trinkets that are something a vendor could potentially be selling/something similar and saying trinkets that are too involed/big shouldn't be allowed. I'm now freaking out low key because of the potential to be frowned upon for my gifts, or take sales away from a vendor.

I'm gonna attach some photos of what I've made - would love opinions from you guys? I will keep them home if I have to but it breaks my heart to think of doing that!

Thank you in advance 🫶

He wasnt sure what to wear and I said whatever makes you comfortable so he was a cowboy lol it totally worked for us. We had so much fun and he really enjoyed everything but the lines to get a beer haha the wind kicked up pretty crazy too so I gave up on my hair pretty quickly

Onto the next one!

This was my first time at the Carolina Renaissance Festival, and we had such a great time! Everyone's costumes were incredible, and everyone was so kind and welcoming. I loved seeing all the creativity and getting to experience it all for the first time. Will definitely want to come back next year✨

First time to Ren faire. I hope I fit in.

(Sorry about the back to back posts! Had to edit). Tried hard with my garb and handmade my accessories, had a cool time and can’t wait to check out more faires. Had a blast shopping and made a completely random impulse buy of this beautiful carved pipe for the old Toby. I hope everyone had a good time💚

Can't wait for next year!

It was freezing there but luckily I brought my winter cloak for later in the evening!

I was a fortune teller this year and luckily found a crystal ball 🔮

Has anyone had a bad experience with the jouster “sir Charles” or had any problematic interactions with him? He said some weird thing about kids and treated the women poorly.

I was at the Utah ren fair in Mona and had a great time, but something stuck with me, the multi time world champion jouster was kind of an asshole, during and after the show.

During the show he was very funny and entertaining, but part of the show involve picking princesses from the crowd to give flowers to, two of which were small children, during this he said something among the lines of

“The best part of being a knight is you get to have multiple princesses, if you know what I mean”

I heard a few people say “those are children” And kind of disgusted he said that.

And after the show while there were only a few people gathered around the horses and talking with the jousters, he was trying to get the attention of the announcer for the joust, and shouted “WOMAN” to get her attention, which is not cool, you don’t say that to anyone even if your trying to get their attention. And It wasn’t a playful or medieval way, just yelled at her, and everyone looked around and seemed uncomfortable that he would do that.

This is not to spread hate and I know this is not a usual post, but it was stuck on my mind and I have to put it out there.

It was chilly and the ground muddy, and a tree branch fell while taking a picture and nearly missed me, but I still had a good time. 😄I also had to change my original outfit because it wasn't cold weather friendly. Gotta love Maryland, where we can get four seasons in one week!

Had a lot of fun at the new King Richard’s Faire. Hope I saw you there

Spooky days had so much to see/do, I forgot to take pics while I was there!

Another glorious Saturday!
