Florida Renaissance Festival

Hear ye, hear ye, Game of Thrones fans!

The 27th Florida Renaissance Festival once again transforms Quiet Waters Park’s 430 acres into the 16th century, complete with jousting and turkey legs.  This year’s opening weekend, Feb. 9-10, is dedicated to “Game of Thrones,” featuring costumed characters from the Emmy-winning HBO series strolling the grounds, a replica of Iron Throne (photo opp!) and performance by Medieval Times Orlando.

This year’s festival will run seven weekends through March 24 at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach. Each weekend features a different theme: Time Travelers (Feb. 16-18); Viking Invasion (Feb. 23-24), Wenches (March 2-3), Swashbucklers and Sirens (March 9-10), Celts and Highlanders (March 16-17) and Harry Potter (March 23-24). There will be plenty of food, drink and activities for the entire family.

The festival is open from 10 a.m. – sunset. Tickets are $25 for adults 12 and up; $11 for children ages 6 – 11, free for children under 6. Adult and child season passes also available. Parking is free.
