Fairgoers can enjoy some tasty food and drinks, take home some crafted goods, and watch several live music performances, fire stunts, and even some combat.
Logan Jiminez, the host of the Cockatoo Encounter, says it's sure to be fun, no matter how you dress up.
'My favorite thing about Renaissance Fair is that you can come out in full costume or in your jeans and a t-shirt and you're gonna have a great time. Nobody judges you for anything here. You can come out, be who you want to be, and there's something for everybody,' said Jiminez.
The Ren Faire runs from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. for the next two weekends, May 10-11 and May 17-18. Tickets are $20 and they are good for both days. Kids under 12 get in free. Parking at the venue, 4051 Dean Avenue, will cost $5.
