The magic returns in 2026!

The knights, jesters, merchants, and musicians are resting their voices and sharpening their swords as we prepare for an even grander faire in 2026.

While the 2025 season has closed, here’s a taste of the adventures that made our village come alive.

Celtic Folklore Weekend April 25 – 26

Step into a world of ancient tales and lively music. The pipes will play, the dancers will whirl, and families will gather for a celebration of Celtic tradition. Student Day makes its return, giving students admission for only $5 with a paid adult ticket.

Pirates & Wenches Weekend May 2 – 3

The seas come to shore as pirates and wenches fill the village with laughter, mischief, and roaring shanties. Treasure hunts, duels, and high-spirited fun make this a favorite for the bold at heart.

Fantasies & Fairies Weekend May 9 – 10

The lanes will sparkle with fairies, elves, and magical creatures. Families will be transported into a living storybook, and on Mother’s Day Sunday, the first 50 moms through the gate will receive a fresh carnation.

Wizards & Wands Weekend May 16 – 17

Magic fills the air as wizards, sorcerers, and magical folk take over the faire. Guests will marvel at spellbinding shows, conjure up their own potions, and wave their wands in wonder.

Vikings & Shield Maidens Weekend May 23 – 24

Axes will clash, horns will sound, and the strength of the North will be on full display. Vikings and shield maidens welcome you into their world of valor, tradition, and hearty celebration.

These are just a few of the adventures that await when the Southern Indiana Renaissance Faire returns in 2026. The full schedule will be unveiled this winter, stay tuned, gather your companions, and prepare to step into history, fantasy, and legend like never before.
