Renaissance Festival

Utah Renaissance Festival & Fantasy Faire

History and Fantasy unite every year in May at the Utah Renaissance Festival and Fantasy Faire in Marriott-Slaterville, only 30 minutes from north Salt Lake City.

Here time stands still as myth and legend collide in a fanciful display of the Renaissance period interspersed with eccentric and whimsical elements of a time that never truly was.

As you step through the gates into Hawkhurst Village, Fairies float by on gossamer wings, Gypsies belly dance to the beat of a rhythmic drum, Pirates fiercely guard their treasures, Mermaids splash playfully in their own pool of water, Magicians perform amazing illusions, and in the distance, you can see the Knights of Honor preparing for their jousting tournament that is to be presided over by the Royal Court and King Henry VIII. You’ll also have the chance to wander through the Guild Encampment, where you can visit the Romans and Azure Rose.

Tulip Festival

Thanksgiving Point

Welcome spring this April through May and enjoy all the colors of the rainbow spread throughout nearly 100 different varieties of tulips during the annual Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival. Featuring 250,000 tulips spread throughout the 55-acre Thanksgiving Point Gardens, the Tulip Festival is an awe-inspiring sight that is redesigned each year to create a new display.

On Fridays and Saturdays, the Tulip Festival includes spectacular tulips, music, vendors, and food. Garden tours and demonstrations run every day. Though hundreds of volunteers and staff work behind the scenes to create the festival, make no mistake about it: Mother Nature is in charge of the show.
