Mini Ren Renaissance Faire

The Mini Ren Renaissance Faire is an annual event held in downtown Arab, Alabama, where the streets are turned into a medieval village populated by knights, mythical creatures, artisans and entertainers. The day includes live stage performances, roaming characters, games, themed activities, artisan vendors selling handcrafted goods, and specialty food vendors. Visitors are encouraged to dress in period costume, and the event is aimed at all ages, from longtime Renaissance faire enthusiasts to first-time attendees. Admission is free, and the festival also serves as a showcase for local artists, small businesses and community organizations.
