Welcome to the Moscow Renaissance Fair!

Since 1974, our beloved spring celebration has flourished beneath the leafy canopy of East City Park. Held annually on the weekend of the first Sunday in May, the Fair brings together:

Live Regional Music
A Juried Craft Show showcasing handcrafted, original art from around the country
Delicious Food Booths operated by local non-profits, with all proceeds supporting community initiatives
All-Day Kids’ Activities where children of every age can play, explore, and create
A Vibrant Parade starring our colorful Dragon, accompanied by local Bagpipers and the Volunteer Peace Band
A Costume Contest judged by the public
A Public Maypole Dance with live music
Free Admission for everyone!

We take pride in being one of the region’s longest-running, community-supported fairs, free from traditional event sponsorship. Our commitment to sustainability has reduced our landfill waste by 90% since the 1990s. Each year, we celebrate creativity by commissioning original artwork for our posters and programs, and we honor local heroes as our Kings and Queens of the Fair.

Rain or shine, the Moscow Renaissance Fair is a joyful gathering of friends, families, and neighbors—a time to revel in the renewal of spring and the spirit of community. We hope you’ll join us!
