Since 1977, prepare thyself to revel with master revelers at the Colorado Renaissance Festival, where pleasures reign and merrymaking is the rule. The 16th century village and marketplace are festive grounds, indeed, for the magical theatrical entertainments, period arts and crafts, delicious foods, fine ales, games of skill and much, much more. Featuring a cast of 100's of authentically costumed merrymakers, impromptu encounters with court jesters, fire eaters, Knights in shining armour, maidens fair and even His Royal Majesty, Good King Henry the and His Queen Ann are commonplace. .
