Colorado Renaissance Festival Grounds

I go to the Colorado Renaissance Festival in Larksbur every year. I truly live to go there! While I never dress up, I go every year for the turkey legs and to people watch. I always have good laughs and I am constantly entertained by the music and crafts (leather working, glass blowing, beading, braiding, henna tattoo's and more!). There are a few rides, tons of games, and great food everywhere. This is a place you must go at least once in your life, or in my case once a year! Each weekend has a theme so go online to their website and find out which one is best for you.

Plan ahead. Pick a character you can relate to, either from real history, some old movie or just made up by you, rent or obtain a costume, and just go to town. Give the Rennies (staff at the festival) something to interact with you over and watch how creative they can get. Spend a few hours being someone you haven't been all year. It's the best way to experience the Ren fest.

well traveled all over also..& Castle Rock is NOT Larkspur. the little mexican eatery is just one place..(but if it was about the food) why not just eat at the festival? in a nice middle class & upper end communittee...But Castle Rock again...is not not Larkspur..where there are homes skattered in the trees for miles & ranches, our little town only has a few retail shops but we have the advantage of being close to Denver and Colorado Springs which have many suburbs and advantages nationaly & locally. I don't think pointing out any nationality is right on any level..but then their are small minds all over the planet...Have awonderful day while your here!

I loved it there, dont listen to any of the yahoos who said it wasnt good. they people are amazing, costumes incredible, and shows entertaining! i cant wait to go back. oh ya and i met the man of my dreams there!
