Upstate Renaissance Faire (2026)

The Upstate Renaissance Faire is a lively, family-friendly festival that transports visitors back to the age of knights, castles, and adventure. Guests can enjoy live entertainment, sword fighting and jousting, music and dancing, unique artisan vendors, delicious food, and interactive experiences throughout the village. Founded in 2021, the faire celebrates history, creativity, and community while bringing together performers, artists and guests for a weekend of immersive medieval fun.

Tickets are $24.25 ($22.65 plus $1.60 PayPal fee = $24.25) and are transferrable but nonrefundable. This does not include purchase of any food or pictures with the kangaroo - those are additional expenses that you are responsible for should you decide to purchase them. Parking is free.

From the URF website:
We are thrilled to announce an exciting new chapter for the Upstate Renaissance Faire—this year, we are partnering with Hollywild Animal Preserve as our new venue!
With this beautiful new location comes more space, expanded parking, and the opportunity to better serve our ever-growing Renaissance Faire community. Nestled among winding wooded trails, Hollywild offers a setting that brings an even richer sense of immersion, allowing the magic of the faire to truly come alive around every corner.
​
But that’s not all—this year will feature unique animal encounter experiences as part of the adventure! Ever dreamed of taking a photo with a kangaroo (additional purchase required)? Now you can. These special additions will make your journey through the faire unlike anything we’ve offered before.
​
From new experiences to expanded grounds, we are beyond excited to welcome you to a season filled with wonder, discovery, and unforgettable moments.
