Canterbury Village Medieval Faire June 8th & 9th 2024
ALL AGES WELCOME!
Castle turrets and ramparts will be the backdrop for a wide range of entertainment as you stroll through this outdoor medieval adventure at Canterbury Village!
Be entertained by ogres, musicians, jesters, magicians, fire breathers, the mad queen, strolling performers, and more – all set within the quaint, cobblestone-pathed Canterbury Village! With a REAL castle!
Knights in shining armor jousting on their great steeds; the clash and clang of swords in combat demonstrations; the cheery sound of minstrels singing and instruments being strummed; gasps and laughs and cheers from the crowd as performers dare to eat fire, dance on stage, and play out hilarious shows.
Shop costuming, fine jewelry, chain mail creations, magical crystals, shining crowns, capes and cloaks, swords and shields, and all sorts of other medieval wares at the vendor tents and village stores!
There will be plenty of activities for the entire family! Afterwards sit and enjoy a cold drink or a pint of ale or mead on the C-Pub patio – or grab a turkey leg! After all, no faire is complete without one!
