The Robin Hood Festival is something different you’ve been looking for. Here you can escape to the past and experience a romantic age once lost to time as you wander the streets of an 11th century springtime faire.

New acts and old favorites return from around the world to chase thy cares away with smiles and laughter.

Shop 'til ye drop at New England's largest Medieval Marketplace featuring hand crafted and unique items you can't find anywhere else! Dine like a King on succulent turkey legs, exotic foods, traditional festival fare, tasty treats and scrumptious desserts at our food stalls!
