Valhalla Renaissance Faire
Put on your jester hat and journey back to a time of castles, queens, and knights in shining armor. Located at Camp Richardson in South Lake Tahoe, the Valhalla Renaissance Faire will be stunning audiences with Renaissance reenactments on June 1st, 7th and 8th. Look for a fine piece of jewelry or unique attire at one of the many shops. Buy a small snack or a meal fit for a king. Witness archers aim for the bullseye. Or just sit back and watch two armor clad individuals charge head on at each other in the jousting competitions. This is history made fun, and whether you know a little or a lot about the Renaissance, you are sure to have an experience that you'll be talking about for a lifetime.
