The Bristol Renaissance Faire operates as a seasonal outdoor entertainment event near Kenosha, Wisconsin, recreating Elizabethan England for a nine-weekend festival held each year beginning in July. During festival days, which run on Saturdays and Sundays plus Labor Day Monday, attendees explore a 30-acre village with open-air stages where swordfighters, minstrels, and jesters perform and visitors can encounter costumed figures such as Robin Hood and Queen Elizabeth. Admission covers all entertainment, while the site features games, arts, crafts, and food that contribute to an immersive historical experience. The Bristol Faire Marketplace hosts nearly 200 artisans offering items such as hand-crafted silver jewelry, pottery, leather goods, and tapestries. The event is located just west of I-94 at the Illinois-Wisconsin border and operates rain or shine from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on festival days. In 2022, media coverage recognized the Bristol Renaissance Faire as the Best Renaissance Faire, reflecting ongoing regional recognition.
