⚔ The 38th Annual Tennessee Renaissance Festival is opening this weekend in Arrington. The festival will take place every weekend through Memorial Day (5/27). Daily general admission tickets start at $25 per adult; $5 for children ages 3-12; and children ages 2 and younger are admitted for free. The festival is located at 2135 New Castle Road, Arrington. There will be theme weekends, including: Viking Victory (May 4-5), Fantasy & Folklore (May 11-12), Pirate Plunder (May 18 - 19), and Celtic Celebration (May 25 - 27). The festival is cash only for food, beverages, games, and souvenirs. And most importantly, make sure you’re educated on how to speak at a Renaissance Festival — people may not understand you if you only speak plain English. "Hark! Fare thee well on thy travels, good soul!"
