Step Into the Magic of the Arkansas Renaissance Festival

Arkansas’ first permanent Renaissance Festival, this immersive event brings to life the sights, sounds, and spirit of a 16th-century European village. We have worked hard to bring together live jousting, enchanting performances, artisan vendors, and medieval feasts so there’s something for everyone to enjoy.


Our festival is a celebration of history, fantasy, and, most of all, community. Wander through our marketplace filled with costumed characters, musicians, and storytellers, all ready to share their talents and tales with you. With plenty of activities for children and adults alike—archery contests, a Kid’s Zone, and interactive theater—you’ll find adventure at every turn.


For history enthusiasts, fantasy lovers, or anyone simply looking for a day of unique entertainment, the Arkansas Renaissance Festival offers an unforgettable experience for the whole family. Grab a turkey leg, don your favorite costume, and join us for a journey into the past like no other.
