Ravenwood Faire is an annual medieval-themed event held at Frederick County Fairgrounds during two weekends in October. The faire recreates a bygone era of the late Medieval period to the high Renaissance period. Ravenwood Faire features an array of family-friendly activities and immersive experiences, centered around harvest celebrations led by the Baron and Baroness of Ravenwood.
Ravenwood Faire features a vibrant Marketplace full of artisans and craftsman, presenting their unique wares. Visitors can also feast on the finest foods and drinks, including meads and ales. Minstrels and Renaissance musicians provide high-quality entertainment. Meanwhile, the king's knights engage in the Royal Joust, the King's Grail Quest, and other challenges. The King's Feast is a unique chance for visitors to sit, feast, drink, and party like a monarch while supporting the Ravenwood Foundation.
The Viking Encampment will offer educational and fun activities for people of all ages. Other types of entertainment includes: glass-blowing demonstrations, falconry, puppeteers, stilt walkers, balloon artists, full armor combat demonstrations, living statues, and more. The faire runs from 10 am to 5 pm.
