Photo Gallery: Georgia Renaissance Festival 2006

The festival is full of fun shows, plenty to eat, and lots of rides for the kids. It's an excuse for girls to dress up in corsets, so most of the costumes I saw (and you'll see below) involve women wearing corsets. There's a good bit of shopping, if you're interested in clothing and trinkets of this nature. And of course, there's plenty of interesting foods like turkey legs, milks, and beers. If you go to any renaissance festival, I'd recommend you plan your day around shows. Jousting should be your top priority if you want to see it; stunt shows, comedy shows, music performances, and storytelling shows happen more frequently. And plan time for rides for the kids and plenty of rest if you're going on a hot day.
