2024 Ely Renaissance Faire & Pumpkin Festival
The Ely Renaissance Faire & Pumpkin Festival is fast approaching, and we are thrilled to share some exciting updates for this year’s event, scheduled for October 19, 2024, at Broadbent Park. This year’s Faire will feature live music from Finch & the Magpies, a talented trio that will delight audiences with traditional Irish tunes on fiddle, concertina, and guitar.
One of the main highlights of the faire is the return of Medieval Armored Combat, also known as Buhurt. Courtesy of the Idaho Armored Combat “Rat Pack,” this armored melee fight has become a centerpiece of the event since its debut.
The Faire is a true community event, with local organizations and businesses participating in various ways. Eastern Nevada Landscape Coalition will set up informational tables to promote their services. Attendees can enjoy unique activities such as fortune telling by Janet from the White Pine Public Museum & McGill Historic Drug Store, face painting and so much more.
Join us on October 19, 2024, at Broadbent Park for a day filled with medieval merriment, community spirit, and fun for the whole family!
