St. Petersburg Renaissance Faire

2025 Themed Weekends

Easter Weekend - April 19, 20

Bring the whole family for an Easter Celebration you won’t soon forget. Break your lenten fast on a juicy Turkey Legg whilst your wee nippers scour the shire for Easter Eggs.  For families and friends bereft of heirs, you are invited to join us on our Keg Hunt – a tour of the various and sundry Ale Houses ending in a secret prize for those well in their cups.

Swashbuckler Weekend - April 26, 27
Calling all Seadogs, Swashbucklers, and Sailors. This weekend only Het Majesty will grant amnesty to all rule breaking ruffians and grace upon them Letters of Marque for the war with Philip of Spain. Impress friends and family at the Talk Like A Pirate Contest, or just enjoy a refreshing Rum Runner ‘neath the shade of a palm tree brought from the New World.
May Day Weekend - May 3, 4
Don your finest flower garland and join us for the welcoming of May. Learn Morris Dancing with our Villagers, or join the Shire in crowning the May Queen. This weekend is for those olde souls that feast not only on wine and honey, but dance and song.
Romance Weekend - May 10, 11
We say farewell for the season with a spectacular romantic rendezvous. Long time lovers may renew their vows with the blessing of Her Majesty, while those looking for love can learn the art of wooing from William Shakespeare himself.

Welcome to the Shire of Heyford!

As winter yields to spring and the days grow longer and hotter, the royal custom is to flee the heat of London and enjoy a relaxing progress through the English Countryside.

It is here that we find ourselves in the Shire of Heyford. The year is 1591, and Queen Elizabeth Regina Gloriana is arrived for a grand celebration to ease the burden of state that rests so heavily on her great shoulders.

‘Tis on this faire day that an unknown playwrite by the name of William Shakespeare plans to present to the Queen a new play about a pair of star crossed lovers from fair Verona.

Will his play earn Her Majesty’s favor and set this young upstart crow on the road to stardom, or will his hopes be dashed upon the rocks of his own hubris?

Of course, the play isn’t the only thing. Each villager, cook, entertainer, artisan, and courtier has a story to tell, wares to peddle, and feasts to cook. The only problem for you, dear traveller, is that one day is simply not enough time to experience all there is to offer!
