Please review us: Facebook Reviews Google Reviews (used by Android Google Maps) TripAdvisor Reviews Yelp Reviews (used by iPhone Apple Maps) “Cherished, beloved and much appreciated – that’s what you are (our patrons, fans and festival family). We present to you one of our favorite events, this weekend, not to carelessly expose you and ourselves to illness; but to learn how to get back to the ‘new normal’ while practicing health and safety precautions. COVID-19/20 could continue for many months (a year even). Yet, for the sake of getting performers and artisan merchants back to work and generating commerce, we’ve decided to keep the original/authentic Des Moines Renaissance Faire LLC on schedule. Our lovely new site, The Pines in Saylorville, lies within county jurisdiction, thus we adhere to policy directives from the Polk County Health Department. Also, we present the festival not to separate ourselves from other local and regional Renaissance events, but to create unity. Ye all are welcomed! Truly, we are all in this together.” -Gregory Schmidt, CEO/head bill payer Festivals International Your original and family-friendly festival, established in 2004, and produced by the folks that have been bringing Renaissance Festivals to Des Moines since 1993!
