BC Renaissance Festival
Location: Aldor Acres Farm, 24990 84th Ave, Langley, BC
Website: http://www.bcrenfest.com
Email: info@bcrenfest.com
Admission: Adults $12, Children/Seniors $7
The year is 1510 and the return of the Pirates of the Jade Dragon to Steller's Grove could mean a death sentence for Captain Charity. With a new warrant in the hands of the Sheriff, and a surprise witness in the village, Charity's fate seems sealed. Politics, betrayal, and treachery make for strange bedfellows as King James is left with no choice but to make privateers of Charity and her rag-tag crew. This may be his only chance to control them and keep his fleet.
Come experience the 3rd Annual BC Renaissance Festival! Shop the marketplace, enjoy the stage performers, and spend some time with the characters of Steller's Grove. Thrill to the excitement of the Joust and join us in song at the end of the day. More to see and do for all ages. Come for the day, or visit us all three days, and immerse yourself in the 16th century!
Live The Revelry!
