Enjoy it your way. Go on a stroll through the village with a&nbsp;gigantic turkey leg or steak-on-a-stake (Eeeek!!!! <i><b>NOT<\/b><\/i> vampire friendly!) or one of the many scrumptious vegetarian delights like the perennially-popular Garlic Mushrooms (I&#8217;ll risk the garlic, can&#8217;t say the same for Count) or Chocolate-Covered Strawberries. If you&#8217;re thirsty, craft brews, ciders, cocktails, teas, sodas, and other refreshing beverages will hit the spot.<\/p>\n<p>Got the shopping bug? There are plenty of goodies to buy at one of the nearly 200 artisan shops where everything from handmade chain maille, Scottish kilts, and handcrafted leather masks to Steampunk adornments, soaps, jewelry, and floral wreaths for the hair can be found. Also, interesting, educational demonstrations by potters, blacksmiths, and other working artisans are offered many times throughout the day.<\/p>\n<p>There are fun rides and games as well as entertaining shows throughout the grounds to satisfy everyone. Special event weekends such as Steampunk and Pirate themed days will be happening for the delight of Renaissance cosplayers and their fans.<\/p>\n<p>So come and experience a summer day in 1574 when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth visited the English city of Bristol at the Bristol Renaissance Faire!<\/p>\n<p><em>Bristol Renaissance Faire is located at 12550 120th Ave., Kenosha, WI 53142&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Runs for nine weekends ( July 8 through September 4, 2023)&nbsp; Saturdays,&nbsp;Sundays &amp; Labor Day (Monday) Open rain or shine 10AM &#8211; 7PM.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Tickets are available at the Box Office.<br>Adults: $40<br>Children (Ages 5-12): $15<br>Children 4 &amp; under are FREE. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Skip the box office lines by purchasing discounted adult and children tickets at Menards or purchase them <a href=\"https:\/\/www.showclix.com\/tickets\/bristol-renaissance-faire-2023-bcke2xj?_ga=2.121524488.1494343246.1690554197-131420935.1690554197\/\" target=\"blank\" rel=\"noopener\">online<\/a>.
