Passing through the gates will bring you into the Shire of Crossford, a village in Northumberland that is ruled by the beloved Duke and Duchess and their family. You will meet knights, woodsmen, noble lords and ladies, cobblers, and craftsmen alike. It is a festival day for them, and they invite you to join them in their revelry. Partake in the shows! Feast on delicacies from the days of olde! Learn how to sword fight! Hunt for treasure! There is an adventure for every member of your family just waiting to be discovered!

These are but a few delights of our local New Jersey Renaissance Faire, a fully immersive and interactive adventure unlike other such faires where you are just a mere spectator. This Faire is a unique and magical phenomenon that needs to be experienced to be understood. Here, you can be anyone! Here, you are just as much a part of the festival going-ons as the villagers and nobles!

Step into the storyline and witness travelers throughout time and space come to the magical shire of Crossford! Mingle among the characters, or simply watch in awe as villagers and pedestrians alike proudly display their period attire like peacocks on a prance! Explore the Faire’s artisan merchant village, where you shall find over 50 merchants, shopkeepers, and artisans waiting to dazzle you with their wares!
