We've been attending the PA Renaissance Faire since the early 90's and our most recent visit was a big disappointment. The faire was overly crowded and it was impossible to follow the themed story or even identify the faire actors/characters. The lines for food and...More

PROS: * lots to see and do, never a boring moment * lots of food choices, plenty of spots to get alcohol * many people dressed up, fun to watch * ample seating and picnic tables to take a break at * tons of shopping...More

We decided to attend the PA Renaissance Faire after a twenty year absence. What a change. Whereas the faire used to be performances under the trees and very small crowds, this is now a Hersheypark experience -- crowds, expensive food, and lots of ways to...More
