  306. Kelly H says

    Our family of 6 plus in-laws would love to be able to go to the Renaissance fetsival. We haven’t been able to go in years because we cannot afford it. I got my degree studying the Renaissance and Reformation periods and as a young child did Medieval rubbings. My husband is an expert on Shakespeare. Some of my children have never experienced the festival since we could no longer afford it. Arte of the Booke was our favorite vendor.

  309. Cathy B says

    Renaissance festival has so many cool things to see and experience. We can’t wait to see it again!

  311. holly williams says

    Can’t wait to go this year! this will be our third year and each year we bring more people when they become fans!

  324. Brooke Kilmer says

    Love it! Have gone sooo many times since I was a kid but my husband and his family have never been! hoping to win those tickets for that reason!🥰

  328. Xanthe says

    I went to the Renaissance Festival back when I was in high school, and it was amazing! I would love the chance to go again and bring my three sisters, my niece, and my parents so they can enjoy it too. It would be so much fun to share this experience together as a family!

  336. Janice McManus says

    would love to win the tickets! Im bringing my kids for their first time and would love my sisters and their kids to join us as well!

  339. Sally says

    I haven’t been to the Renaissance festival and would love the opportunity to attend and take my family, and as well extend it as birthday gift to my brother. Thank you!

  345. Bridgett Moore says

    We were just talking about Ren Fest with the neighbors last night. 8 tickets would be great for the group of us!

  346. Erin Badger says

    I would love a chance to win tickets to be able to take my daughter who is 10 years old and extremely interested in all things historical. I think the experience of taking her to the Renaissance Festival for the first time could absolutely blow her mind.

  347. Sue C says

    RenFest is always great. There’s a small food stand in the main thoroughfare near the jousting area. It sellls ice cold pickles and sheets of cured meats, all for pretty cheap. That’s our favorite grab n walk snack in the whole place.

  353. Anna D. says

    Our princess-obsessed girls have been begging to go to the Renaissance Festival, but, unfortunately, tickets are out of our budget right now. We would love to be considered, thank you! And thank you for putting in the work to find affordable Charlotte area activities for our family of 5 to participate in, we have really enjoyed being newsletter subscribers!

  360. Norman Edwards says

    HatI wold love to take my wife, my grown children and grandchildren. What a fun day for a family outting!

  362. Asia Holmon says

    My family goes every year! The festival has become a yearly tradition for us. We love to dress up and have fun together. I can’t wait to go back this year! It would be amazing to invite a few friends to accompany us!

  368. Tyler says

    Winning this would be the modern equivalent of pulling the sword from the stone—minus the heavy lifting.

  370. Jonah S says

    Entered the Renfest giveaway. If I win, I am eating all the turkey-legs I can get! Also who doesn’t love a good show?

  372. Kat says

    Hear ye, hear ye! I humbly request thine favor! Grant me passage to the land of turkey legs, jesters, and dragons (okay, maybe just cosplayers)! May fortune smile upon this noble quest!

  374. Adriane Hirsch says

    We would love an opportunity to show our out of town friends coming October 10th, the best Ren Fest in the world!!!

  385. Julia says

    We have tried to attend every few years since the 90’s when we were taking our children. Now, we love to just go and enjoy the day at leisure and it’s so much fun. It’s just TWO of us, so if we win, we would give away to others in line to spread the love, of what we don’t use or give to a local family since the price is a little steep sometimes.

    my family goes every year and this year was a struggle so we are truly looking forward to coming back!
