Duchess Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 I looking for people to suggest any renaissance or pirate festivals that are with in driving distance of Eastern Washington this summer. I'd like to plan some weekend trips to "real" festivals. The paltry poor crafts and hippy fest that was the Moscow Renaissance Festival has only reminded me how good the real ones are. So I'd like to go visit some. So Suggest Me Up.
Duchess Posted May 9, 2006 Author Posted May 9, 2006 Excellent. Now all we need are some knowledgable people to point us in the right direction.
WillTheobald Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 Waiting........might as well get smashed while we are here!
Duchess Posted May 13, 2006 Author Posted May 13, 2006 Well, I've been doing some looking on my own. I came across the Northwestern Renaissance Festival, www.nwrf.net and was curious if anyone had been there?
WillTheobald Posted May 15, 2006 Posted May 15, 2006 It looks more like a rennaissance theme park more than a Ren Faire. I would be interested in knowing what someone has to say about it though..
WillTheobald Posted May 18, 2006 Posted May 18, 2006 http://www.seadognights.com/ This looks like it could be fun. Mostly just a campout, but they seem like a crazy sort of bunch. Who knows...
Duchess Posted June 15, 2006 Author Posted June 15, 2006 Well, I should be going to the Northwest Renaissance Festival this weekend. I'll report back how it was. The website has also been updated, making it look much more organized.
pigleg pete Posted June 18, 2006 Posted June 18, 2006 A long drive from you, but I'll be going to the Westport Pirate Festival this coming weekend - Westport WA (on the coast). BTW - I have an extra campsite available there -June 23-25 - some of me scurvvy crew jumped ship.
CadricCallahan Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 I'm the quartermaster of the Hazard, the autocrat's ship for Sea Dog Nights and Gypsy Carnival - it's quite a hoot, and definitely a lot more than just a camp out Come out and join us - we've got a pier with ships on one side, merchants along the "waterfront" on the other, games, classes, treasure hunts, raids, fire dancing, fire eating, gypsies, belly dancers, a swimming stream (both family and otherwise ), bonfires, candy cannons; we should have representation from the Mer Serene, the Moca Sozhina, the Puget Sound Pirates, Fire and Steel fire performance troupe, the Brotherhood Of Oceanic Mercenaries (B.O.O.M.), and several different belly dancing troupes. It's a great time, and cost is pretty minimal comparatively. If you've got any questions, we're at http://www.seadognights.com, or e-mail to seadognights@gmail.com - Captain Zorgon (autocrat) can answer any specific questions you've got. *tips hat* G'day to ya, and hope to see ya there, I do And for WillTheobald - we're definitely a crazy bunch - had about 950 folks on site last year, expecting a bigger bunch this year. Come on down!
