Camping Option:

For those who want to immerse themselves fully in the experience, we offer a camping option. You'll need to purchase a separate camping pass to gain entry to the TRF campgrounds. We'll be arriving on Friday morning and will share our campsite location at 10 AM. You're welcome to start arriving and setting up your camp at that time. We'll be packing up and leaving on Sunday, the 12th, starting at 9 AM.

Food and Dining:

Our meals are potluck-style, and a food sign-up sheet will be emailed to those who RSVP. To ensure everyone's safety, we kindly request that if you cook anything, you provide a list of all ingredients used to avoid any allergy issues.

Event Schedule:

There's no strict schedule for our hangout weekend. Guests are free to wander the camp and enjoy the Ren Faire attractions at their own pace. Please remember to wear comfortable shoes as there's a lot of walking involved at the fair. Also, be prepared budget-wise, as Ren Faire food and drinks can be a bit pricey.

Weather Preparations:

Texas weather can be unpredictable, so we recommend bringing items that can be layered to adapt to both cold and warm conditions. Don't forget your sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun's rays.

Dinner and Nightlife:

On Friday, dinner will be held at 6 PM, and on Saturday, dinner will happen once the gates close for the day at the faire at 8 PM. As the night falls, our camp turns into a lively and rowdy place. For those who prefer a quieter night's rest, we recommend bringing earplugs to ensure you get a good night's sleep.

Meeting Point for Non-Campers:

For those not camping with us, we will meet at the front gate at the opening cannon on Saturday morning, so no one misses out on the fun.

Prepare to be transported to a world of fantasy and excitement at the Texas Ren Faire. Eudantria Events can't wait to share this incredible experience with you. Don't forget to invite your friends, dress up in your most adventurous costumes, and let the Barbarian Weekend begin!
