2025 Weekend Themes
Celtic Weekend
February 8 & 9, 2025
Fire up the pipes and tune the fiddle, for this weekend belongs to the Celts. Let Cu Dubh and The Jackdaws take you on a musical journey of rebellion and reminiscence, drink a pint or two, and perhaps show off your knees and well turned calves at our “Bonnie Knees Kilt Contest”.
2025 Entertainment Lineup
The Bawdy Boys
Absolutely catchy and unbearably filthy, the music of The Bawdy Boys will grab you and not let go. They have dedicated their craft to reproduce the kind of music you’d enjoy whilst being shanked in a salty sailors bar off the coast of Lake Michigan, and are proud to bring it to the Brevard Renaissance Fair.
Madrigal Mayhem
Hark! Are those angel voices ringing through the shire? (and what on Earth language is that anyway?) Madrigal Mayhem will delight you with their Medieval and Renaissance songs and dances.
Wheel of Death
Prepare for an adrenaline-pumping experience like no other with Ichabod Wainright's Wheel of Death! Featuring the country's only wooden wheel of death, Ichabod will amaze you as he skips rope and juggles flaming axes. Get ready for a heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat show that's guaranteed to leave you breathless.
Saturday Knights
After the gates close, we are excited to host 6 amazing special events, one each Saturday night. And, best of all, the events are now included with your fair admission. The Saturday Knight events will begin at 7:30 pm unless otherwise noted.
February 8th: Screaming Orphans
Screaming Orphans are a chart-topping all-sister Celtic folk and pop band from Donegal.They are known worldwide for their award-winning sound combining original pop songs with a unique take on traditional Irish music. From an early age, the Diver sisters entertained international audiences around Ireland accompanying their mother, legendary ce?ili? singer Kathleen Fitzgerald.
The band has always defied being pigeonholed, having masterfully developed their own unique fusion of folk and pop. The sisters’ trademark spine-tingling four-part harmony and mastery of their instruments combined with their highly energized performances take audiences of all ages on an exhilarating and emotional musical journey.
Screaming Orphans’ pitch perfect harmonies have led them to many collaborations on recordings and stage with artists such as Sine?ad O’Connor, Peter Gabriel, Joni Mitchell, Baaba Maal, and Afro Celt Sound System. The band continues to tour and play extensively across America, Canada and Europe.
As of this year, the band has released 16 albums, encompassing both original pop and folk/Irish music, as well as one Christmas album. Their albums Taproom, Life in a Carnival, Sunshine and Moss, and Paper Daisies have topped Billboard, iTunes and World Music charts.
