We participate in many events, with a wide range of audiences. Please take a look at some of the more common events we participate in, and please contact us if you are interested in having us be a part of your experience!

Bristol Renaissance Faire
Janesville Renaissance Faire
Stronghold Olde English Faire
Reenactor Fest
Port Washington Pirate Fest
Historic Camelot Fayre
Cotswold Renaissance Faire
School Shows
Our group was founded with the goal of educating through entertainment. We also believe that to understand the past, one must be able to touch, see, and smell (well okay maybe not smell) what that past was really like. Two of our charter members, who are also educators, were looking to incorporate what they did during the summer into their classrooms to help their students understand the history they taught. Our school show presentations were born out of that desire to give kids (and adults!) the opportunity to experience history through direct contact. Instead of just reading about clothing, we allow students to try on clothing for different classes of society. We not only discuss the medical practices of the late medieval and early modern period of European history, but also delight in showing students the medical instruments used. Of course, as our group is based on a martial history, we definitely show and discuss armour and weapons, and allow as much hands on contact as is possible. If you are interested in having the Guild come to your event please contact us!

We’ve had the honor to work with some amazing charitable groups as well as
weddings, trade shows and more. If you have a function that could use an
unique experience, please let us know!
