Shediac Renaissance Faire

Any century. Any tongue. The stranger drinks first. The Shediac Renaissance Faire returns for its second year, now three days long. It opens Friday evening, 20 August, at Parlee Beach with the Gathering of the Realms, included with any ticket. On Saturday and Sunday the Neptune grounds become a village: merchants and makers, combat and craft, archery, minstrels, feasts, a costume parade, and dancing under the big screen. Saturday runs until midnight; Sunday closes with the tournament final. Come in costume, or come as you are and leave in one. Tickets on sale Thursday 29 October at 10 am, at shediacrenaissancefaire.ca. The first 1,000 are super early bird.
