We had a great day there. The staff were all super friendly and helpful! The place was well maintained, and the entertainment everywhere added to the fun. My only complaint was the shops were expensive - one has to be prepared to pay extra for any clothing or accessories. However, the merchandise appeared to be good quality.

Prepare and save your money, for the simple fact you are paying for quality craftsmanship. Make sure your phone battery is filled out have a battery pack, between photos and pokestops you're very well may drain fast. The food there is awesome. You can get a good sized piece of pizza for $5. When you go, do what you can to stay all day. The drinks there soon $4 for water & $8 for alcohol. Be prepared to find mythical creatures, perfromers and some of the friendliest of folks. Just overall a great experience.

I'm giving this 2 stars for a few reasons: Expensive, The free activities weren't in line with the price point you pay to get in, Not very family friendly for small children, lack of clean bathrooms, 1 changing table for babies in the entire grounds that I saw, nowhere for nursing moms to sit comfortably with their infants, Not slot of space for anyone to take sit down breaks while it's hot, Pricing of everything is too high: $4 for drinks, $6.50 for a brat that was not all that great, rides and games cost $4 to $8 a pop. On the positive side, the employees/ actors did really well with their costumes, language of the period. The variety of shops was good. I highly recommend they improve restrooms, sitting spaces, make it more child friendly, please make your prices more affordable. We had 5 people, spent over $300 total on tickets, food, and and 3 books and a souvenir mug. I was disappointed, but will give it a try in the future. Anyone planning a trip be prepared to do alot of walking, sunscreen, bugspray, and be prepared to spend alot of money . If you're bringing a family, you'll have more opportunities if you can have $1000 spending cash as a minimum. They also need to switch things up and offer more shows, activities, and shops. I was looking forward to buy a new purse and did not see any shops with purses. It's also very crowded at lunch time around the food stands, lots of long lines for food.

Great experience! It was pretty crowded but didnt feel cramped. All of the people were very friendly and committed to the concept and the happiness of the guests. Food and beverage was reasonably priced ($7 for a beer and $2 for a soft pretzel) and it was all delicious too. The only complaint I have is that its is definitely stroller accessible but not stroller friendly. If you have small kids a wagon or something is better than a stroller

As someone who was born in raised in Kenosha, I feel extraordinarily blessed to live so close to the Bristol renaissance faire. It has an incredibly wide selection of the dead eras products and fantastical sights to behold; jousting, fencing, and parades to name a few. I highly recommend to visit this place if you're passing through. Some cons, however, are long lines and overpricing but if you know what you're looking for you can find some pretty sweet deals with the vendors there.

I always get my drinks from the beautiful lady in her little shack. Love dressing up, and seeing what I can add to my outfits. C. Diva is where I got my first bustier. When my baby girl is older, I'm taking her through the petting zoo they have. And start making outfits for her too. Every year I'm always looking forward to get here! Made a decent amount of faire friends and you will too! It's definitely worth the money spent getting to/from and inside! I hope you end up loving it as much as I do!

Fun and unique experience. Employees and many guests dress the part for the period. Entertainment at every turn from free stage shows , games of skill, Renaissance roles played by employees, actors and audience members and people watching to your heart's content. Fun day. Good food and drink. For ages 3 to 90. Lots of walking and hills . Plenty of shade on hot days and shelter during rain.

One of the biggest and best events in the area. I've been coming here for years, and so many of the performers here have been mastering their shows for YEARS and give the same knock down performance 5 times a day every weekend. Definitely more of an adult attraction than for the young ones, but there is still much fun to be had for the whole family. Good food, Better people, Overall just a great time. Also, even the most simple of costumes really makes a difference here. The whole event feels better on weekends where more guests are in costume, even the basic ones.

It's basically a kids themed fair with employees lavishly dressed in clothes of, you guessed it, the Renaissance era. The shows and games, with the exception of the jousting arena and the "strong man" game, (hit the weighted pulley target to ring the bell), are for kids. For adults, there's a lot of over-priced clothes, boots, jewelry, pottery, etc., available for purchase, along with beer, liquor and food stands. In my opinion, I wouldn't recommend going to this fair. By the way, it costs 30 bucks a ticket to get in.

This place is awesome! Only went there once with my daughter but definitely going back! To the person that wrote the negative review concerning the smoking, learn how to write a review please. Complaining about other patrons smoking is not a review of the facility itself. Reviews are done on "Appeal", "Facilities", and "Service". You obviously seem to like the place since you keep going back to it correct?
