Sterling Renaissance Festival

Thousands of repeat and new visitors will travel to Sterling, New York this summer, to see one of the most unique and refreshing outdoor festivals anywhere in the world. The Sterling Renaissance Festival is a whimsical recreation of an Elizabethan town at festival time. It features a wide variety of music, dance, and song from Renaissance England, and astounding feats of swordplay, comedy and magic; all presented on a 35 acre site with 20 open air stages, crafts, demonstrations, games, and hearty food and drink.

It also has townspeople, who are as endearing as they are mad, and have an uncanny knack for drawing you in to their spontaneous antics. The whole site is a stage alive with events, improvisations, scenarios, lane performances, stage acts, Shakespeare plays and concerts.
