The Faire features thousands of cast members, dressed in 16th century wardrobe, which is also worn by hundreds of visitors. The journey through the grounds boasts live music and dancing as visitors walk the streets, where they see

food stands, stages, and parades as people await the Queen’s arrival. The highlight is the jousting tournament where armored knights on their groomed steeds display their talents to the queen. Each knight shows his colors with plumes attached to the helmet and his colors adorning his horse. Each knight first displays his skills, including attempting to extricate a ring from a pole with his sword as he barrels by on his steed. In later

rounds, the knights compete to topple each other from their mounts, each striving to become the top mount of the Queen’s brigade. The town has 16 stages featuring an array of entertainment that appeals to any age. Enjoy a mud show, the fire whip performance, magic performances, or the Barely Balanced comedy and acrobatic show, and other performances.

The state allows any business with a liquor license to have five video game machines; the village has discretion as to which it will grant a license. Currently, Antioch
