DOYLESTOWN, Pa., Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Hear ye, hear ye! The Bucks County Renaissance Faire embarks on its inaugural season this Labor Day Weekend, Saturday Aug. 31, Sunday Sept. 1, and Monday Sept. 2. All ages are invited to three days of legendary fun on the grounds of Moravian Pottery and Tile Works Museum, 130 E. Swamp Road in Doylestown, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day.
From captivating performances on multiple stages to an artisan marketplace bustling with unique treasures from over 60 craft vendors, the Bucks County Renaissance Faire will offer something for everyone. Delight your taste buds with a variety of foods and treats, such as a classic turkey leg paired with a libation from local favorite Crooked Eye Brewery. For a refreshment the whole family can enjoy, step into The Human-Powered Snow Cone Machine, a hamster-wheel-like contraption that allows guests to create their own frozen treat.
Take thy feast and grab a seat for award-winning headliners, including Shakespeare Approves! a family-friendly show that takes audiences on hilarious adventures. Join juggler and sideshow performer David Darwin for his amazing stunts, including sword swallowing. Celtic magicians Daniel and Bella GreenWolf will dazzle audiences with their fire-breathing and interactive comedy.
Musical standouts include Foxy Bard and Twig, a duo offering a unique blend of Renaissance music, folk, and world music; Philadelphia's Triantán, blending traditional tunes with modern energy; and a capella group Pieces of 8, a family of travelers entertaining audiences with songs and stories from a great many places.
After a rollicking tune, don't forget to "shame thy friends" by enlisting the services of Swashbuckling Mercenaries for Hire. They'll toss patrons in the stockades and give them the ol' fuzzy tomato for unforgettable fun. Linwe, a vibrant belly dancer skilled in cabaret and fusion styles, will showcase her talents with veil and sword work. Krystal Younglove, the Indestructible Lady, will present classic sideshow performances featuring animal traps, piles of glass, and beds of nails. Phoenix Swords, a troupe of swords-people, will educate and entertain with their knowledge of weaponry and valiant battles throughout the day.
Amidst all the action, be sure to take a moment to admire the venue of TileWorks, offering historic tile tours where guests can explore the decorative halls and workshops, and watch craftsmen turn Bucks County clay into tiles. Horse-drawn wagon rides will be offered on the historic grounds.
Those seeking adventure can test their skills on the proving grounds with archery, axe-throwing, and dagger-toss, culminating in the "Fight the Knight" challenge. Guests can also learn the art of whip cracking from Sean the Whipsy Rover, and behold the craftsmanship of Rabenwald Metalsmything. These exhibitors will be joined by the Barony of Buckland Cross SCA (Society for Creative Anachronism), recreating the arts and skills of pre-17th century Europe, with tournaments, royal courts, feasts, and dancing.
Finally, get ready for the ultimate role-playing game experience with Dice Knight Adventures, where players can complete missions and explore the Faire in search of quests, items, and people. For more laid-back fun, pull up a chair in the Gaming Stronghold, where tabletop games abound.
