The upcoming season of the Florida Renaissance Festival is packed with exciting new changes and additions! From fresh attractions to new performances and expanded entertainment, this season promises more magic and adventure than ever before. Whether you’re a returning guest or joining us for the first time, there’s something new for everyone to enjoy. We can’t wait for you to experience all the surprises we have in store!
Kid's Free Admission Weekend!
For the coming 2025 festival season, Weekend One is dedicated to the youth in our community. Not only will the theme be centered around them, but kids (ages 6-11) will be allowed free entry to the festival!
For children to gain free admission into the festival, each child must go to the box office, and pay a $1.50 county park fee. Only then will they each receive a ‘free-admission’ ticket for the festival. No child will be allowed free admission into the festival without the ‘free-admission’ ticket. Please be advised that this $1.50 fee goes to Quiet Waters Park. This deal is only valid on Weekend One: February 1st & 2nd, 2025!
Introducing our new Gear Garden (Steampunk-Inspired Area)!
We are thrilled to announce the transformation of our former Biergarten area into a brand-new steampunk-themed area called the Gear Garden! This exciting addition will immerse guests in the imaginative world of steam-powered inventions and Victorian-era charm. The Gear Garden will feature a renovated soda booth, a reimagined pub, and a newly designed stage, all reflecting the intricate and whimsical aesthetics of the steampunk genre. Whether you’re a fan of the genre or just curious, this area will be a unique and vibrant space for all to explore and enjoy at the Florida Renaissance Festival!
