Moscow Renaissance Fair

The Moscow Renaissance Fair is a community-run spring celebration held under the trees of East City Park in Moscow, Idaho. It features live regional music, a juried craft show of handcrafted original art from around the country, food booths run by local non-profits whose proceeds support community initiatives, and all-day children's activities. Other traditions include a parade led by a dragon with local bagpipers and the Volunteer Peace Band, a publicly judged costume contest, and a public maypole dance with live music. Admission is free, and the fair operates without traditional event sponsorship while pursuing waste reduction.
