Travel back to 16th Century England. Our Village of Covington Glen comes alive with the bustle of a Renaissance Marketplace.

Hear the sounds of Renaissance musicians and merrymakers as they echo through the trees. Color, movement, and peals of laughter welcome those who thrill to the challenges of Games of Skill and Man-Powered Rides. Come join us at the Tennessee Renaissance Festival!
