Go Back in Time for the Best Craft Show

By Rick Amorey

Relive the time of knights and kings in the Arizona Renaissance Festival! A medieval amusement park, it features a 12-stage theater, a 30-acre circus, jousting tournaments and craft shows all rolled into a non-stop, exciting family adventure.

Be a part of the craft show; indulge the senses in the amazing handmade products at the Renaissance Festival's artisan marketplace. There are over two hundred shops that offer a wide selection of crafts! Look for unique items that are not sold in other craft shows; a sheep's wool boa, a blown glass work of art, classical perfume, and perhaps even a studded leather armor for novelty.

"A King and His Court, Duelists and Ladies, Crafts, Food and Games, An Enchanted Kingdom Joust Just For You!" This are the words that introduced the event back in 1989. Twenty years since, the spectacle has remained generally the same, but much grander now. From a humble eight acres, the spirit of the past now spans a whopping thirty grand acres of space. So, go on and be a part of the renaissance by joining in the festivities and fun. If you're lucky, you can even seek knighthood and join in the Jousting Tournament!

There are heroes on noble steeds battling fearsome dragons, knights riding forth on a valiant quest with the fair damsel's blessing, court jesters and kings, princes and paladins... All these can be found in the Arizona Renaissance Festival. So get in your armor and get in touch with your inner child by being part of this amazing fair!

The Annual Renaissance Festival is one of the largest such events in the United States. It is commonly held in February, with the fanciful European village constructed on the site by the foothills of the Superstition Mountains east of Phoenix, AZ. So what are you waiting for? Pack your bags and enjoy your time back in time! - 2361
