Are you kidding? It's far too cold
to have a renaissance festival in this region. |

warmer now. |

Or now. |

Des
Moines Renaissance Faire & Coronation Pageant
Water Works Park - The lovely seaside village of Des Moines, IA
[J.P. and Grace]
This event marks a return of renaissance activity in
Des Moines. For a few years (up until 2000), there were
actually two festivals here, but then one moved to Amana
Colonies, IA and the other shut down in 2002. The last
time a festival was held in Des Moines, it drew 20,000
guests!

Siouxland
Renaissance Festival
Behind Wild Water West -The lovely seaside village
of Sioux Falls, SD
[J.P. and Molly]
When I performed at this event in 2002 with the Washer
Well Wenches, we had some of the largest and most
intense audiences I have ever seen. It was a total blast,
and also right next door to a water park! Pirates like
water.

Great Lakes Renaissance Faire
Norrie Park - The lovely seaside village of Ironwood, MI

RAGBRAI
The lovely seaside village of Marshalltown,
IA
[J.P. and Molly]
After meeting some pirate-themed bikers (no, not those
kind of bikers) at the Des Moines Ren Faire, Molly made
a call to see if we could perform during RAGBRAI. So far,
it looks like we may be going to pass the hat in Marshalltown
on this Wednesday.
