What is the Maryland Renaissance Festival?

Welcome to Revel Grove, where the leaves are turning, the turkey legs are roasting, and the vibes are straight-up legendary. Every fall, the woods outside Annapolis, in Crownsville, Maryland transform into a bustling 16th-century village filled with laughter, adventure, and just the right amount of mischief. The Maryland Renaissance Festival is the place to play, feast, and frolic.

Come Hungry, Leave Legendary

After cheering at a joust or laughing at a jester’s antics, treat yourself like the royalty you are. Tear apart smoked turkey legs, sizzling mac & cheese on a stick, fresh apple pastries, and even scotch eggs. Sip on honey wine or classic mead as the crisp fall air rolls in, yes, mead, it’s basically medieval White Claw.

Make It a Whole Weekend

With so much to do, you’ll want more than just a day. After time-traveling to the 1500s, explore 18th-century charm in historic Annapolis. Book a nearby hotel and make a family getaway of it, you’ll thank yourself later.
