Duchess Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Oh, I'd like to make a week of it. But that isn't possible. Probably just be a Friday to Sunday sort of thing. I'd be going mostly because there is an excellent band from Germany whose only American shows are at the PA renfair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Mermaid Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 Lancaster PA isn't too far from the Faire and it has an outlet center you could check out. Let us know when you come around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_Young Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 My In-laws live in Philly and it's only about an hour and some change outside the limits to the faire. If anyone will be there in early September (aye, the same weekend as Dragon*con, alas) Give me a shout.

What happens at the outlet mall? The dates I could come would be Oct. 7-8 or Oct. 14-15 So I'll keep you posted about the plan of action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Mermaid Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Nothing really happens at the outlets. It's discount shopping though! I've never been to the outlets in Lancaster but I'd like to check them out. http://www.rockvalesquareoutlets.com/ http://www.800padutch.com/z/tangeroutlets.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saiolorgirl Posted May 17, 2006 Share Posted May 17, 2006 I'm going to be going at least two weekends. In the past I used to get season passes, but I just can't afford it now. I'm going the first day (Aug. 12th)... It's the weekend after my B-day and I'm going to try to get all my friends to go that weekend. I'm planning to rent a gown, (if I can afford that). The other weekend that I'm sure I'll go is the weekend before we sail south to the pirate infested Key West. It will probably be Oct 7th. I'll be hanging out at Capt'n Shucks...

kaizoku Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 to the person asking about flying in: gettysburg pa is a wonderful place to stay, especially if your into paranormal stuff or civil war or just old time stuff. its about an 1hr15-1hr30min away from the ren faire.

Thanks. If I come it will be just for the festival. Arrive late friday night, attend festival on Saturday and depart Sunday morning. So ideally I'd like to stay some place near the festival. So, not much time for sight seeing. Maybe a little on Friday depending on when I come in. I'm trying to convince my brother to come along, but if not I'll probably go it alone. A grand adventure.

callenish gunner Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 there are several motels within walking distance of the faire ...and flying into BWI batlimore/washington or into philadelphia international are about equal distance from the faire the one advantage to philadelphia would be direct train access to within 10 miles of the faire ...a reasonable taxi ride ...

kaizoku Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Also there is a campground about half a mile or so away, right at the entrance to the turnpike. Its a decent campground also.

Tudor MercWench Smith Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Not to be a shill or anything - but the hotel I work at is only 45 minutes away and we are one of the offical innkeepers of the faire - therefore, discount tickets available!
