The Second Annual Lake Renaissance Festival

A New Day! A New Opportunity! A New Fun Time!

What a day filled with Festivities! Great entertainment!  Great food and drink!  Clothes, jewelry, crafts and goods to buy! Music for the soul, both the wayward and the not-so wayward!  Dancers to see! Sword Fighting!  Games to play!  Hilarity galore! Mischief abounds!

But what is it?  It’s the Second Annual Lake Renaissance Festival at Tuscan Village on Main Street in Lower Lake, next to the post office, on Saturday and Sunday of Memorial Weekend, May 29 and 30^th, hours from 10A.M. to 6 P.M. each day.

Sing along, clap your hands and tap your feet with those scoundrelly scalawags the pirates of the deep seas, the infamous Seadogs who will be bending your ears with their sea shanties on stage and around the town throughout both days.  If you heard them last year, you know what a treat it will be to hear them again.  If you didn’t hear them, you’ve a treat yet in store.

Come to attend the wedding of the year at the Tuscan town of Porto del Mare, when the Scots of the Clan Fraser visit town to prepare for the wedding of their own young master with the timid blushing  bride, a cousin of the powerful  Medici family. Since Porto del Mare is a trading town, those dastardly Scots must have this match in mind for their own benefit.

Not to be missed are the Barbary Coast pirates who plied the Mediterranean during the Italian Renaissance, those under the flag of the Ottoman Empire, as well as those scurrilous rogues, the Brotherhood of the Black Flag.  All will be here near the marketplace and will make their presence known.  Beware lest you get caught in the middle of a sword fight.

The bustling port town will see vendors of various sorts with rare jewels, clothing and crafts to purchase,  And partake of the various foods and ales, and the wines of this region when you visit the winery in the center of the town.

Would you like to know the truth about yourself? Then come have your fortune told by the mysterious fortune teller, Madame Judith the Gypsy. She is known far and wide for her Egyptian Stone Casting readings for your enjoyment.

This is Lake County’s  best of the best in historical entertainment, which takes you back 400 years to simpler times, when people knew how to celebrate.  Come to the Tuscan Village on Main Street in Lower Lake, on May 29 and 30, from 10 A.M. to 6 P.M. Tickets are $7,  with a $2 discount for students and seniors, patrons in costume or with a discount coupon, while children 10 and under are free. Parking is free.
