About the application

Dragonstone Experiences are small-group, reservation-only workshops, demonstrations, lessons, and activities offered on Wednesdays between festival weekends. The purpose of the program is to create additional earning opportunities for vendors, performers, cast members, artisans, and other approved members of the Dragonstone community.

About the event

Arkansas’ first permanent Renaissance Festival, this immersive event brings to life the sights, sounds, and spirit of a 16th-century European village. We have worked hard to bring together live jousting, enchanting performances, artisan vendors, and medieval feasts so there’s something for everyone to enjoy. We will be open the last weekend of Aug through the first weekend of October. Our festival is a celebration of history, fantasy, and, most of all, community. Wander through our marketplace filled with costumed characters, musicians, and storytellers, all ready to share their talents and tales with you. With plenty of activities for children and adults alike—archery contests, a Kid’s Zone, and interactive theater—you’ll find adventure at every turn. For history enthusiasts, fantasy lovers, or anyone simply looking for a day of unique entertainment, the Arkansas Renaissance Festival offers an unforgettable experience for the whole family. Grab a turkey leg, don your favorite costume, and join us for a journey into the past like no other. Please reach out if you have any questions.
