The medieval faire in Sherwood Park is set to transport visitors straight into a world of legends and adventure this summer.
Locals and travelers alike can look forward to the arrival of the northern enchanted faire, an event that promises immersive experiences for all ages.
More than just a festival, this celebration invites guests to roam through a lively Viking village, try their hand at ancient crafts, and witness a variety of themed performances.
According to event organizers, both the indoor halls and sprawling outdoor grounds will be filled with activity, ensuring that rain or shine, the excitement won’t stop.
The sound of clashing steel will echo through Sherwood Park as the highly anticipated knight tournament gets underway.
Members of the Historical Armoured Combat Sports Association will don full gear, bringing authentic medieval combat to the spotlight in a breathtaking display of skill and bravery.
You’ll also find blacksmiths shaping fiery metal, while the bustle of artisans and vendors creates an atmosphere that feels straight out of a storybook.
Organizers say a grand marketplace will stretch across both indoor and outdoor sections, showcasing handmade wares, rare treasures, and local creations.
For those eager to relax between adventures, covered pavilions and staged seating offer front row views of enchanting live acts and performances.
Of course, no medieval faire is complete without food: expect mead, classic treats, and several food trucks serving up crowd-pleasing fare.
While furry friends must stay home, service animals are welcomed by event organizers.
Kids 14 and under can attend for free, making this a fantastic family outing in the Edmonton area. |

Excited for handmade goodies, my friends and I always buy too much!
WHEN ?
Will they have archery or just the knight fights?
Covered pavilions sound perfect, I hate standing in the sun all day.
Wish the marketplace had more medieval costumes in bigger sizes.
Last festival was super crowded, any tips for parking?
The Viking village was my kids’ favorite last time. Can’t wait to see what’s new.
Anyone know if the mead is locally made?
Rain or shine! Hope the weather holds out this year though.
I miss when my grandpa did blacksmithing at these things. Glad they still have it.
Free for kids under 14 is awesome, thanks for making it affordable!
Bummed dogs aren’t allowed. Would’ve loved to bring my pup.
Hope they have lots of food trucks, last year we waited ages in line.
Looking forward to those knight battles, sounds fun!
