PLANTERSVILLE - (30 minutes, 29.9 miles)

Texas Renaissance Festival - The Texas Renaissance Festival is perhaps the nation’s largest, most acclaimed Renaissance theme park. Open to the public every weekend in the fall, it's an exciting exploration of yesteryear.

The enchanted 60-acre village comes to life as all of Europe pays homage to the king and queen with eight themed weekends. Hundreds of costumed performers are showcased in over 200 daily performances. Visitors meander along shaded cobblestone walkways visiting almost 400 shoppes overflowing with unique arts and crafts and delicious foods and beverages.

Visitors of all ages will be amused by the games of skill and human-powered rides. Revel in the sights, sounds, smells, tastes and beauty of this authentically recreated 16th Century British village with lush landscaped grounds and vines. A perfect day ends as spectators behold the burst of royal fireworks held above the festival’s lake.

The Texas Renaissance Festival is held annually for eight weeks beginning in mid-October.
