Visitors to the Ohio Renaissance Festival are entertained by nearly 100 engaging, live shows daily on eleven stages scattered throughout a 30-acre permanent village. This year, the festival features a full schedule of the most unique entertainment found anywhere.

New This Year

Robin Hood and Maid Marian will keep you in stitches as they transform audience members into the stars of heroic tales such as St. George and the Dragon during The Adventures of Robin Hood, a fun show for the whole family!

The haunting sounds of carillon bells played by the Spirit of the Bells will fill the realm. Cast in Bronze, the only musical act of its kind in the world, performs multiple times daily for six of the seven weekends. Weighing over four tons, the carillon is an impressive sight to see and hear!

Molotov the Gypsy will entertain audiences three weekends with a hilarious mixture of magic, juggling, fire-eating, and wild stunts. When not on stage find him in the village lanes, ready with an amazing trick or two.

The villagers of Willy Nilly-on-the-Wash have a gift for Her Majesty, but where is it? It’s been stolen and it’s up to the Sea Dogs to get it back. Swords, rope swings, gunfire and comedy burst from the decks of the 65-foot pirate ship during the Pirate Comedy Stunt Show as the Sea Dogs gather clues and try to solve the mystery. See if you can solve the mystery of the stolen gift before this surly band of pirates can!

Enjoy music and comedy performed by The Other Woman in the village pubs but don’t be embarrassed if you blush.  This maiden is always searching for her next true love and it just might be you!

Returning Favorites

The Da Vinci Bros Comedy Operas presents dynamic audience participation comedies that make the audience the stars. To help tell the story, the audience becomes the orchestra and the sound effects. Sensational fun for the whole family!

Father Son & Friends return for rollicking good times. Traditional Celtic songs, pub songs, bagpipes, and drums will keep your toes tapping and your hands clapping.

The Minstrel Lutenist – Craig of Farrington Couples seeking an unforgettable romantic experience are encouraged to meet the minstrel as he wanders the shady lanes of Willy-Nilly. His personalized love songs are a thing of legend.

The Mudde Show returns with a unique blend of comedy and earth as they perform Beowulf, Dante’s Inferno and the muddiest show of them all, The Viking Show in the only Olympic-sized Muditorium found in three states.

The Swordsmen offer sharp rapiers and even sharper wit as they teach what one needs to know in order to become a gentleman. A few lessons include the proper way to offer a kiss upon the hand and how to engage in dueling.
