Canby, Oregon (April 2, 2024) – The Oregon Renaissance Faire invites one and all to step back in time and experience the enchanting world of the Renaissance era. Set in the picturesque Vale of Dunrose, the Faire offers three weekends of history, fantasy, and fun for the entire family. This year, the Faire will be held on the first three weekends of June, promising even more magic and merriment than ever before.

Visitors will be transported to a time where knights, jesters and royalty roam the streets. With an array of live performances, including jousting tournaments, music, dance, and theater, visitors will be captivated throughout the day.

The Faire offers a wide array of activities and experiences to entertain and educate guests of all ages. Children can take part in hands-on workshops, learning historical crafts like candle-making and blacksmithing, while adults can enjoy mead and ale tastings while appreciating Renaissance art, music and lifestyles. With interactive games, such as archery, axe throwing and boffering, there is no shortage of fun and excitement for everyone.

The 2024 Oregon Renaissance Faire also hosts an extensive marketplace, featuring over 100 artisan vendors selling unique, handcrafted wares for the perfect souvenir or gift — from intricate jewelry and fine leather goods to one-of-a-kind clothing and unique pottery.

Each weekend of the Faire features a special theme, adding an extra layer of excitement to the festivities. From Celtic celebrations to fantasy adventures, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

NEW for this year, the Faire will host special Friday night concerts, and back by popular demand are the Saturday after-hours themed parties, extending the fun into the night.
