Annual:

The Maryland Renaissance Festival starts the weekend prior to Labor Day weekend, and runs for nine weekends plus Labor Day. Located just outside of Annapolis, MD in Crownsville (yes, I moved here for this faire!) it is a themed, juried crafts event featuring a renaissance village of over 130 professional artisans; dozens of food and drink vendors; games, rides and attractions; plus stage entertainers, jousting, period music and pageantry. One of the top 5 renaissance themed events in the country. Celebrating our 30th season in 2006, I've been exhibiting since 1985.
   
Dates for 2007: Opens the weekend of 25-26 August, last weekend is 20-21 October.
