New England's longest-running Renaissance faire, in its 45th season, on a wooded site at Carver well south of Boston. Spit-roasted turkey legs are the thing people queue for, and the pubs and taverns are set through the village rather than in one food court.
Dates and details checked September 26, 2026 by Elliot Marsh against the organiser's site.
Hotels in Boston around 3 to 4 October 2026, dates pre-filled. Prices and availability open on the partner site.
