Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Do you allow pets?

  2. Do you allow outside food and beverages?

  3. Can we wear swords or other medieval/renaissance weaponry?
    You are allowed to wear swords and other renaissance appropriate weaponry as part of your costume, but they must be peace tied, so they cannot be drawn while in the park. Security can help you with this at the gate. The exception to this is we do not allow guests to bring functional muskets. Only pre-approved performers are allowed to carry these.

Please note that Season Passes, Ladies and Lords of LORE passes, and Military tickets are collected at Will Call. Bring your receipt or give your name to collect your pass.
