Experience a 16th Century Medieval Amusement Park with the Colorado Renaissance Festival back in Larkspur starting this weekend (June 15th).

The village streets of the festival are full of artisans selling original art, fresh baked goods, roasted turkey legs, steak on a stake and much more. There will be jousting, comedy shows and a cast of hundreds walking and performing throughout the faire.

The Renaissance Festival runs on weekends through the first weekend of August.

There are three ways you can purchase tickets to the festival. The most affordable option will be through King Soopers. Single-day tickets can be purchased at a participating location for $25 for adults and $10 for kids aged five to 12. Single-day online tickets will cost adults $26.50 and children $11. Tickets can be purchased online at the Renaissance festival’s website.

Parking is free.
