About Us | Renaissance Faire Uk

All About Us

We are a small family team who are passionate about fantasy. We are Jamie and Calypso, a couple with a beautiful young baby daughter. You can find us on our personal social media accounts: Black_dahllia and ResinliantPrints. We will be playing Oberon and Titania, among other characters, at our event.

Jamie and I come from a creative production background. Jamie has experience in theatre direction, scriptwriting, prop making, Tabletop game design, and 3D printing. The majority of my experience is as a costume artist, photographer, and small events organizer.

We bring the right skills to realize our creative vision. The other members of our team have experience in local authority event organization, infrastructure planning, and many other business skills.

We are so excited to create this new experience!

Frequently asked questions

FAQ

A Renaissance Faire is a lively outdoor festival that recreates the atmosphere of a historical period, typically the European Renaissance of the 14th to 17th centuries, through costumed performers, themed entertainment, and artisan crafts. Attendees can immerse themselves in a world of jousting knights, wandering minstrels, and bustling marketplaces, often enhanced by interactive activities like archery or dance. Events like Renaissance Faire UK: The Crossing of Worlds add a unique twist, Being based on an original fantasy setting inspired by and designed to educate people on the myths, folklore, and nature of England and Kent. Alongside imaginative elements, such as our immersive improv focused narrative event with audience participation, The Wedding of Prince Andal and Princess Syldari. And our Masked Ball featuring bands like Ravenhymn and Yara Liz to bridge historical charm with creative flair.

By Car

Drive to Quex Park using the address CT7 0HR. From London, take the M2, or from Canterbury, take the A28, and follow signs for Margate. In Birchington, look for the Powell-Cotton Museum sign next to All Saints Church on your left, then turn right into Park Lane, and the entrance to Quex Park is half a mile on the left. Please do not enter the main Quex Park area via the Quex Barn entrance. If driving by car you will be directed to parking at the event location which is next to the main Quex Park area. If you use the provided Post code as opposed to the main Quex Park post code there should be no confusion

By Train

Take a train from London Victoria to Birchington-on-Sea station, which takes about 1 hour 45 minutes. From the station, it's a 1-mile walk to Quex Park, taking around 20 minutes, or you can opt for a taxi. Alternatively, take the highspeed train from St Pancras to Margate, which takes 1 hour 20 minutes, then catch a bus or taxi to Birchington-on-Sea to reach the venue.

By Bus

Take the number 8 bus to Birchington Square, then walk half a mile along Park Lane to Quex Park, which should take under 10 minutes. Check local bus schedules for the most current information, as routes may vary.

Saturday and Sunday day tickets for a single day, Weekend tickets for the full weekend, Camping tickets for staying in our camping area from Friday to Monday, and Family versions of the above tickets. We also sometimes have sales with Doubles and Couples bundles that bundle together two of the same ticket for a discounted price. As an addon we offer tickets to our Masked Ball. Which is a special activity we offer as an epilogue to our event on Sunday from 6pm to 10pm.

Yes. You can bring your dogs. But we must insist that your dog be on a lead at all times and you immediately clean any mess they make. If you are spotted not cleaning up your dog’s mess you will be warned more than once. And then ejected from the venue without a refund if you ignore this warning multiple times. If you are camping then your dog must remain within the designated camping space we assign you when not on a lead. And must have their lead on in the camping area when outside your camping space.

We offer free carer passes that must be checked out with a valid ticket. In addition, we have plans to offer pathing for those with mobility difficulties, dyslexia friendly signage, plenty of seating, and a chill out tent for those with sensory difficulties. These are our plans right now but they may change closer to the event. When everything is concrete we will create a special page on our website with info on disability provisions.
