At Greenwoode Village, our mission is to celebrate and preserve the rich traditions of the past through immersive, hands-on experiences that bring history to life. This year, we are thrilled to announce our visit to the Sherwood Forest Faire, an event that perfectly aligns with our dedication to historical authenticity, craftsmanship, and community engagement.
What is Sherwood Forest Faire?
Nestled in the heart of Texas, Sherwood Forest Faire is a renowned medieval-themed festival that transports visitors to a world inspired by the legendary tales of Robin Hood. With over 150 live performances daily, the faire offers an exciting blend of jousting tournaments, falconry displays, swordplay demonstrations, and theatrical performances. It is a place where history enthusiasts and casual visitors alike can step back in time to experience the thrill of medieval life.
The faire also boasts over 170 artisan booths, featuring handcrafted goods ranging from leather armor and pottery to fine jewelry and traditional weaponry. Skilled artisans provide live demonstrations, allowing attendees to witness the dedication and craftsmanship that go into each piece—values that are deeply rooted in Greenwoode Village's own mission.
