A complete walkthrough of the Renaissance Pleasure Faire in Irwindale California. The Renaissance Pleasure Faire of Southern California is an annual event that takes place at the Santa Fe Dam Recreation Area in Irwindale, California. It's one of the oldest and largest Renaissance fairs in the country, and has been running since 1963.

The faire is a recreation of a 1580s English marketplace, complete with costumed characters, food and drink vendors, artisans selling their wares, and shows and performances. There are jousting tournaments, acrobatics, music, and comedy acts. You can also try your hand at games and crafts, or just wander around and soak up the atmosphere.

The faire is generally open from the first weekend of April through the weekend before Memorial Day. This year, the dates are April 6 to May 19.

If you're looking for a fun and unique way to spend a day, the Renaissance Pleasure Faire of Southern California is a great option. It's a great place to let loose, dress up in costume (or not), and enjoy a taste of Elizabethan England.

    Hi Chris. That is a huge Renaissance Faire. Love it when everyone dresses up and gets into character at these fairs. The weather did add to the atmosphere of being in England. Thanks for sharing and take care.

    Such a fun tour. Thanks for sharing, Chris. Can't make it this year, but I'll definitely be at the NorCal Ren Faire in October!

    This Faire has morphed SO much from the early days when it was at Agoura Ranch and was run by a nonprofit, which I absolutely loved due to its strict adherence to the period, but of course the attendance was never what it is today, as that sort of purity to history and such wasn't appreciated by the masses. Haven't been in several years to this one and can see the commercialized aspect with even food trucks showing up now, grows every year, but it's obviously loved by many and I think the best part is that it gives even a larger audience than ever to the true craftspeople that create such amazing treasures! Also kudos to the performers, as they are always entertaining and bottom line, even with the continuing "county fair" aspect of it, it remains one of the most fun things you can do in So Cal!

    Thank you for another great video. You inspire me to make videos for my channels, though we have different styles, and my videos are in Portuguese showing America to Brazil, but still, you are a great inspiration.

    These crowds are huge. It used to be a small thing but I can say it is definitely popular
