Gulf Coast
Renaissance
Faire
March 3-4, 2012
At the Pensacola Interstate Fairgrounds
The earliest foundations of the gulf coast
lie within the Renaissance Era. It started
in the summer of 1559 when Tristan de
Luna sought to establish a colony in the
area now known as Pensacola.

The new pioneers of history in Northwest
Florida are looking back to those
beginnings. In 2001 Steve Melei
established the first Gulf Coast
Renaissance Faire which was held on the
grounds of St. Anne's Church. After the
awful devastation of Hurricane Ivan, the
Faire found a new home at the Interstate
Fairgrounds.

This event has expanded into a second
Faire in Mobile, a historically important
area of the Gulf Coast. The fun, fresh air
and excercise of the event is great for
every age. Patrons are encouraged to
come in costume, as the event seeks to
forge new bonds between the past and
present.

Thousands will gather to witness the
spectacle of armored combat, the
thunderous clash of jousters, the swirl of a
dancer's costume and to sample the wares
of merchants who have traveled from afar.

The Faire goes on, rain or shine, the
second weekend of March 2012. Come
and meet Their Majesties, see fabulous
characters and experience a historically
good time
