The festivities include minstrels, bagpipers, jugglers, sword-fighting demonstrations, children's games, face painting, dancing, and crafts instruction. This year, the Shakespeare Festival will perform a Greenshow titled Jack Juggler,  at the Faire.

Vendors are on hand as well, selling everything from clothes to jewelry, dulcimers and candles to woodcarvings  and weavings, and, of course, food and drink.
