The Arizona Renaissance Festival

The Arizona Renaissance Festival returns on Saturdays and Sundays from January 31 to March 28, 2026.

The festival is a medieval amusement park, a 16-stage theater, a 50-acre circus, an arts and crafts fair, a jousting
tournament and a feast — all rolled into one nonstop, day-long adventure. You never know what you will find on or off
the stage!

This unique outdoor event combines entertainment and wares reminiscent of what may have been found in a 16th
Century European village market celebrating the arrival of the King and Queen to their shire. Walk through our gates to
be transported back in time.

Mingle with over 2,000 costumed characters, eat a giant roasted turkey leg; take part in games of chance and skill; cheer
on your favorite knight; Shop in over 200 artisan shops and select an inimitable gift for that special someone; there is so
much to see and do.

Eat Drink and be Merry is the order of the day at the Village of Fairhaven. The Arizona Renaissance Festival is open
Saturdays and Sundays Jan. 31– Mar. 29 and Presidents’ Day Monday, Feb. 16. Just East of Apache Junction, on U.S.
Highway 60!
