Description

The 40th Annual Central Coast Renaissance Festival transports you back to the splendor of Elizabethan England for two spectacular days — July 18 & 19, 2026 — at Laguna Lake Park in San Luis Obispo, from 10 AM to 6 PM. Come face-to-face with the court of Queen Elizabeth I, watch the thrilling full-combat battles of Armored Combat Worldwide, and enjoy free-flying falconry, live music, comedy, and street performers around every corner. Children can train as pirates at Buccaneer Boot Camp, compete in the daily costume contest, and hunt for treasure, while merchants offer authentic Elizabethan clothing, food, drink, and one-of-a-kind wares. Costumes are welcome but never required — just bring your sense of adventure. Visit CCRenfaire.com for tickets and information.
