Enjoy the rambunctious revelry, as one of the nation’s largest and most picturesque Renaissance Festival creates merriment below the foothills of the Superstition Mountains. Leave your cares behind as you cheer for brave knights and roam a 30-acre festival village filled with castles, cottages and pubs, and 12 stages of nonstop performances of music, dance and comedy. Foolish pleasures mix with artisan treasures as you shop, eat, and revel with a cast of nearly 2,000 colorfully costumed characters.
The Arizona Renaissance Festival runs every Saturday and Sunday, through March 29th, from 10 am to 6 pm.
