Dust off your armor, sharpen your wit, and prepare for a journey back in time. The annual Age of Chivalry Renaissance Festival is officially returning to Sunset Park, transforming the desert landscape into a 16th-century English village. For three magical days, the festival will bring history, fantasy, and adventure to life with immersive entertainment, authentic historical reenactments, and fun for all ages.
The thundering excitement of full-contact jousting tournaments takes center stage as brave knights clash for honor and glory. Beyond the arena, test your luck with the Pirate games in Pirate’s Port, enjoy multiple stages featuring a spectacular nonstop lineup of belly dancers, magicians, comedians, a live bird show by The Birdman, and Celtic rock bands. Visitors can also explore living history guild encampments where passionate reenactors demonstrate ancient crafts like blacksmithing and archery, offering a true window into the daily life of the Renaissance era.
The experience continues through a sprawling artisan marketplace featuring over a hundred master artisans selling handmade period wares, including custom leatherwork, forged iron, exquisite jewelry, and authentic costuming. To complete the journey, fairgoers can feast like royalty on traditional Renaissance fare, from giant roasted turkey legs and hearty meat pies to refreshing English ales, mead and mocktails.
For visitors looking to immerse themselves fully in the medieval experience, the Age of Chivalry Renaissance Festival offers a dedicated public campground just outside the main event perimeter. A variety of weekend packages are available to suit different styles of stay, ranging from standard bring-your-own tent and RV spaces to upscale, pre-assembled options like yurts and bell tents. These packages typically include multi-day festival admission passes, early access to the grounds, and entry into the private campground—complete with its own designated potties and exclusive entertainment. Because spaces are highly limited and sold on a first-come, first-served basis, reservations should be made in advance. More information and full booking options can be found at www.lvrenfair.com.
The fair will also host an unforgettable adventure with a new Guided Pub Crawl! This moderate walking tour carries participants from the East side to the West side of the lake at Sunset Park, revealing hidden corners, spontaneous moments, and the true charm of the realm. Along the way, join a lively, knowledgeable guide while journeying through three distinct taverns—each offering one free tasting crafted just for travelers of the Guided Pub Crawl—while mingling with whimsical villagers and colorful characters who bring the story of the Fair to life. Though seating may be limited, the experience is overflowing with fun, flavor, and discovery, making it perfect for explorers, storytellers, and anyone looking to toast to a memorable day—truly a journey you won’t want to miss!
The festivities take place Friday through Sunday, October 9–11, at Sunset Park, located at 2601 E Sunset Road. Both single-day tickets and full three-day passes are available for purchase. Discounted admission is offered for seniors and children, while kids under five years old enter for free. Fairgoers are highly encouraged to dress in their finest Renaissance, medieval, or fantasy attire to fully immerse themselves in the village experience!
