the Harwinton Fairgrounds in Harwinton, CT.
Now in its 17th year, this beloved New England tradition runs six weekends of jousting, live entertainment, food, and fun for all ages.
The full-contact jousting features armored knights on horseback charging at each other with real impact.
Between jousts, kids can watch a one-woman circus act, visit an interactive Viking encampment with sword fighting and archery demonstrations, or catch roaming characters like the Rat Catcher wandering the lanes.
Each themed weekend brings fresh performers and surprises, so repeat visits feel new.
The marketplace has over 80 vendors selling handcrafted goods including leather armor, hand-forged ironwork, wooden swords and shields, stained glass, face painting, henna, and a gem mine where kids can dig for stones.
Additional attractions include pony rides, a petting zoo, and a paint-your-own ceramics booth.
Food options are affordable with meal deals starting at $7, featuring turkey legs, BBQ, pierogis, boba tea, and soft serve.
The faire allows re-entry and permits outside food for dietary needs.
It is pet-friendly with a $5 pet admission for dogs, cats, rabbits, and even lizards.
Tickets are available online or at the gate.
