The Arizona Renaissance Festival opened its gates on Jan. 31, allowing Arizonans to return to the vibrant village of Fairhaven, conveniently located in Gold Canyon.
Every weekend, the Renaissance Festival opens up and provides the surrounding communities with the opportunity to revel in a day of magic and immersive entertainment unlike any other. Guests should be prepared to be dazzled by performers, jousting knights, acrobats and their death-defying stunts.
Plus, this year guests will be treated to six newcomers who will only be performing at the festival for a limited time, so you don’t want to miss them.
The 2026 Arizona Renaissance Festival will run every Saturday and Sunday starting Jan. 31 and ending on March 29. Here’s how to purchase tickets along with how to get discounts to this year’s fair.
