Michigan Renaissance Festival!

Started in 1979, the Michigan Renaissance Festival has been going strong ever since.

The festival takes place in Holly, Michigan at a 17-acre fictional village called Hollygrove, where you’re transported back to the Late Middle Ages & Early Renaissance period of the 1500’s.

There are costumed knights, wizards, viking, pirates, all sorts of fantasy characters.

You are welcome to dress up in medieval and fantasy clothing.
