Come Live the Legend!
Come and live The Legend of King Arthur at the 21^st annual Great Lakes Medieval Faire!

The Great Lakes Medieval Faire is a shaded, 13^th century family fun theme park filled with fine continuous entertainment, juried crafts and artisans, rides and interactive games, and foods fit for a King. Step back in time to an age of romance and chivalry, where brave knights battle for the favor of the Queen, fair damsels and minstrels frolic, and the villagers and fae enjoy a festival day with much merriment!

This season the village of Avaloch will host the triumphant Court of Camelot with pageantry, excitement, and one of the greatest stories ever told. Come join brave King Arthur and his fair Queen Guinevere as they and the chivalrous Knights of the Round Table battle Arthur's smouldering sorceress sister, Lady Morgana Le Fey, and her wicked son Mordred. With the help of the great magician Merlin, the mystical Lady of the Lake, tricksy faeries, and crafty villagers, the tale will unfold before your eyes! Join forces with the heroic knights or with the scheming forces of darker magic, and cheer your side to victory for the name of Camelot and the fate of Avaloch! All the while, enjoy the music and magical atmosphere as you eat, drink, and be merry exploring the succulent food and drink of the realm.

Come join us this summer at the Great Lakes Medieval Faire and take your place in the larger-than-life legend of King Arthur!
