Kansas City movers are excited for this year’s Renaissance Festival, which is open on weekends from September 5 through October 18. Rain or shine, the event will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. If a member of your family is an avid renaissance costume dresser, then you should take some time away from moving to Kansas City and check out this year’s spectrum of royals and peasants combined.
The Kansas City Renaissance Festival held in Bonner Springs, Kansas was first inaugurated in 1977 as a benefit for the Kansas City Art Institute. It later became a stand-alone event in the late 1990’s. With its 165 booths of local goods and 13 stages, the event draws a crowd of over 180,000 patrons a year. KCRF keeps its artistic tradition by featuring over 150 shops and vendors, many of which sell original crafts and artwork. As a new Kansas City resident, this is the perfect way to find a great piece of artwork for that empty corner in your new home.
Kansas City movers will also enjoy the many wonderful artistic sites. Winding tree-lined lanes, painted murals, banner-strewn, and fancifully decorated buildings are amongst the many visual effects of the KCRF. They even offer a free Living History Tour in which patrons can view some of these craftspeople at work as well as hear presentations by costumed characters about Renaissance art, science, medicine, and warfare.
It really is a great time to move to Kansas City, as The Renaissance Fair kicks off the start of the fall season. Purchase tickets today and your local Kansas City movers will see you there!
