Don’t miss the final weekend of Scarborough Renaissance Festival’s 2017 season this Memorial Day weekend, May 27, 28 & 29, 2017! Spend the Holiday weekend Stepping Back in Time for the Time of your Life with 24 stages of extraordinary non-stop entertainment including full combat jousting, Birds of Prey exhibitions, a Human Chess Match, fire whips, jugglers, high flying acrobats and sword fighting just to name a few. There are 200 shoppes of exquisite crafts and amazing artisan demonstrations. Plus, Children’s Knighting Ceremonies, a Grande Parade, Renaissance rides, games of skill and so much more.
On Saturday, May 28th, Whip Master and 22 time world record holder Adam Winrich (AKA Adam Crack) will attempt to break two world records during his 2:30 pm show on the Crown Stage. The attempts will be for the ‘Loudest Whip Crack’ and the ‘Most Bullwhip Cracks in one minute with a Single Whip’.
On Memorial Day Monday, May 29th, Scarborough will pay tribute to our Servicemen and women by inviting all current and retired Military Service members to march in Scarborough’s Grande Parade at 1pm. Each service member will receive a complimentary yellow sash so that everyone can recognize their service to our Country. Servicemen and women can get details on the parade at the Festival’s Front Gate and pick up their sashes at the Scot’s Camp across from the Birds of Prey exhibitions by 12 Noon on Monday, May 29th.
There will also be a special tribute ceremony for our fallen Servicemen and women immediately following the parade. As always, active duty Military members are offered an admission discount of $4 off adult admission when they show their military ID at the Festival ticket booth.
