The Renaissance Faire & Festival Tuxedo NY Don't Miss It! Real Estate Recovery

By
Real Estate Agent with SHAHAR Management

debra walsh real estateI had the great pleasure of attending The Renaissance Faire this week as part of an event with my local Chamber.   Now, as most know this is an event held in Sterling Forest for the past 35 years.  It draws hundreds of thousands of people from all over.  I have been maybe one other time other than this week. 

What a night it was! I was pleasantly surprised to find that something I thought might be a little boring for me was FAR from it! The actors were nothing less than spectacular.  Jugglers, Magicians, Musicians, Townspeople and more who never once broke character.  During their displays we were all riveted and wanted more.  I have tickets to return for a full day and can't wait to go back.  I am looking forward to the Jousting - they now have a debra walsh real estatefemale Jouster among the group and to seeing all of the actors performing more of their amazing and fun acts.

This is something that if you have never been, or have not been since it has been taken over by the Carrs - you don't want to miss it!  Guaranteed young or old, you will come home with tons of great pictures and will have had a fun time. 

The Renaissance Faire runs from August 6th to September 25th from 10 am to 7 pm on Saturdays and Sundays.  They will also be open on Labor Day Monday.  There are special events, one of them being a Pirate Weekend this Saturday and Sunday.  Come and enjoy rides, food, games, arts, crafts and dance all day in the 16th Century!

HI Debra,

Good post!

I went to the Renaissance Fair, in Marin County Ca., years ago and like you, had a blast.

The actors were fantastic and played their roles wonderfully.

Great activities for all ages and I particularly remember enjoying the ice cream.

I love anything with a medieval theme!  I've never been to a Renaissance fair, but it's on my list of things to try someday.  I've been to a medieval dinner and a medieval murder myster weekend and loved every minute!

Debra -- I think I've seen signage for this when I go to Woodbury Commons usually around Labor Day. It's near there isn't it? This sounds really cool.

H Debra I think events like this would be great fun. We have one here in SS in Carlsbad , I think, but I have never been. Guess I should go the next time and do some magic myself ( with the camera that is, LOL)
