What people are saying...

“Last year the Vermont Winter Ren Faire was the first one I had ever gone to, and I was totally hooked. I went to 4 faires last year and want to try to do more this year. Thank you so much for putting this and the summer Vermont Renaissance Faire together! As well as the other events you guys hold, its awesome to have fun things to do that I don’t have to drive 5 hours to get to!”

“Really, it’s all about dressing up, pretending and having a good time — and the mirth is a bit infectious.”
– Seven Days VT, June 28, 2016

“Sponsoring Vermont Renaissance Faire was the single best investment of our year: Not just best sponsorship opportunity, best investment. It was easily our most profitable event of the year, and, more importantly, everyone had a blast.”
– Groennfell Meadery, Sponsor
