Weekends February 15 - March 29th , PLUS Festival Friday, March 27; Rain or Shine!Description
The Bay Area Renaissance Festival is back and celebrating 42 years of family fun. From small beginnings in the city of Largo, to one of Tampa’s finest regional attractions.
The Bay Area Renaissance Festival was first held in 1979 in the city of Largo. This inaugural Festival featured renaissance dancing, archery contests, jugglers, mimes and madrigals. By 1980, the Festival had added food booths, a human chess match and a unique marketplace. As attendance to the popular event grew, so did the number of artisans, demonstrations, entertainers and foods.
The show has continued to develop fans throughout the years, offering more each year in entertainment, education, food and art. Now seeing the more than 80,000 fans a year, the Festival has provided opportunities for fans to escape from this realm and journey into a time when Kings and Queens rule and Mermaids and Fairies are more than just a dream.
