First up is the Princess' Joust, followed by the Prince's Joust, and, finally, the Joust to the Death. Cheer for your favorite knight until a winner is crowned, then say hi to the champion and his horse after the competition.

From comedy and tragedy to music and dancing and everything in between, there's something for all ages and every member of the family to enjoy.

Axe-throwing, paintball, even the world's largest rocking horse... kids and kids-at-heart alike are sure to have a blast!

You'll see traditional fare like turkey legs and sausage, as well as decadent desserts, alcoholic beverages, and delicacies from all over the globe.

Between the food, games, entertainment, and overall atmosphere, it's like entering a fairytale.

Hours are 10 a.m. until 6 p.m. daily, and parking is free.
