Renaissance Faire Day at Hammond Castle Museum 

• Rain or Shine! Rain or Shine! Step into the world of medieval and Renaissance culture at Hammond Castle Museum, where the castle itself provides a uniquely dramatic backdrop for a magical day steeped in history and fantasy in a stunning setting. Experience the excitement of The Brotherhood of the Arrow and Sword as they return with their high-energy armored combat demonstrations, bringing the medieval battlefield vividly to life. Enjoy captivating performances from the L.I.A.R.s, who will fill the air with sea shanties, alongside a hulahoop artist, a storyteller, a wandering harpist, a bubble faery, and other enchanting entertainers. New this season, our kids’ tent offers little princes and princesses a craft for hands-on fun. Cosplay dress-up is encouraged, but weapons of any kind are prohibited and will not be permitted on campus. With more vendors and food trucks than ever, this year’s Faire is bigger, better, and more magical than before. Stay tuned for a special guest announcement of our honorary King and Queen; more information coming soon! Your admission includes access to explore parts of the interior of the museum, free access to all scheduled entertainment. *Vendor services are not included. Little ones ages 4 and under are free but do require a reserved ticket, and kids ages 5 - 12 are only $10! Hammond Castle Museum Member savings apply. Don’t miss this extraordinary day of music, pageantry, and living history at Hammond Castle Museum, where the past comes alive in spectacular fashion!
