The experience
What's special
The Iowa Renaissance Festival is a long-running weekends faire set in the historic Amana Colonies, held at Middle Amana Community Park across spring and fall weekends. Operated by Midwest Festivals LLC, it recreates a vibrant Renaissance village of costumed performers, a marketplace of artisan wares, and live jousting tournaments, with entertainment ranging from fire-breathers and jesters to minstrels and acrobats and festival fare like turkey legs and honey mead. It anchors a family-friendly, community celebration of history and imagination that has run since the early 1990s.
What people love
Longtime faire-goers describe it warmly as an amazing faire in its own right, with an inclusive, welcoming spirit - one attendee recounts being honored with knighthood by the king - and a crowd that comes ready in garb and has a good time.
