Hear ye!  Hear ye!  The New Jersey Renaissance Faire, in its 15th season of glory, has announced their exciting new storyline for 2024: 

The Brothers Grimm!   

For those who may not know, the Brothers Grimm are responsible for some of the most famous, compelling, (and often dark) children’s stories in history: Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin–and more!  Though these traditional fairytales may be familiar, their endings may not be what you remember…  

This spring, Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm visit the New Jersey Renaissance Faire’s home, in the magical town of Crossford (at the Burlington County Fairgrounds).  When the stars align, the mists of Crossford part, and the portals between our worlds open for a limited time–the last 2 weekends in May and first two weekends in June–we will see classic storybook characters wander the shire whilst the Brothers Grimm reconstruct their tales, and consider what “happily ever after” truly means… 

Apart from the compelling interactive storytelling throughout the day, visitors to the faire can expect to see spectacular performances by nationally known acts as Jacques Ze Whipper, Tiny Girl Big Show, Chaste Treasure, Righteous Blackguards, Rowdy Bardlings, and more!  Patrons will be delighted this season with a wider variety of food options, plenty of shady seating areas, and more opportunities to explore the fun than ever before!   

The New Jersey “Little Ren Faire That Could” has blossomed over the years to host over 5000 patrons per day, and is known throughout the lands for their highly interactive cast of performers.  With a four-horse joust, a human chess match, whiskey tasting, and after-hours shows, the NJ Renaissance Faire has something for everyone, including our youngest patrons.  Come dressed up, and join the fun!  For more info, go to NJRenFaire.com, as well as their Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube Channel.
