About This Faire

Step back in time at King Richard's Faire, New England's largest and longest-running renaissance faire, located in the heart of Carver, Massachusetts. Unlike smaller faires, King Richard's recreates a sprawling 16th-century village, complete with elaborate stages, wooded paths, and artisan shops. This immersive experience transports visitors to a world of knights, royalty, and merriment across acres of land. Expect a day filled with thrilling entertainment, including jousting tournaments, falconry demonstrations, and captivating performances by musicians, dancers, and comedic actors. Aromatic food vendors offer a feast fit for a king, from giant turkey legs to savory pastries. Explore the artisan marketplace brimming with handcrafted goods: jewelry, leatherwork, weaponry, and more. Immerse yourself in interactive activities like archery, axe throwing, and games of skill. The atmosphere is vibrant and boisterous, creating an unforgettable day of escapism. King Richard's Faire is an ideal day trip for families, history buffs, and anyone seeking a unique and entertaining experience. While the faire involves a good amount of walking, the paths are generally navigable. Be sure to check the weather forecast and dress accordingly, as the faire takes place rain or shine. Prepare to be enchanted!
