The Oklahoma Renaissance Festival is back and as usual, it keeps getting better and better!

The festival, which is one of the most popular festivals in the state, typically takes place for six weekends starting at the end of April to about the beginning of June.

Each weekend features a different theme ...

... so you can visit more than once and see different exciting entertainment and events.

Visitors are encouraged to dress up and there is a costume contest for five different categories.

They also have a Royal Quest for kids filled with clues and it's a highlight for many of the little ones.

If you’re looking for excitement, watch a joust.

There’s also live music and entertainment for all ages.

Of course, you can visit without trying some of the delicious food.

You'll find a variety of unique food vendors and over 125 booths selling handcrafted items.

There are lots of hands-on activities for the kids along with a variety of age-appropriate performances.

You might even get to see different types of animals and enjoy some face painting.

Every inch of this place feels like you're stepping back in time to the 16th century.

They put on quite the performance at the festival and you'll enjoy everything from a tribal circus and jugglers to dances and themed dinners.

As you wander the ground of the village you'll find something new to enjoy at every turn.
