Hear ye, hear ye, good gentles and fine folk!
We know many of thee have waited with bated breath amidst whispers of change and the winds of uncertainty. But fear not—your patience hath been rewarded, and the news is most glorious!
The Black Hills Renaissance Festival hath found its new realm!
And lo—it shall be held on the very same dates as before!
Welcome to our new kingdom at Kickstands Campground in Sturgis, SD!
A land lush and green, most befitting a festival of merriment and mirth! With the noble and gracious queen of the campground extending her hand in welcome, we are honored to make this verdant land our home.
Ample space for revels and revelry!
Tent and RV camping aplenty!
Plenty of parking, no more shuttles!
Cabins are currently reserved for performers and staff, but should any be freed, thou shalt be the first to know!
To the many kind souls—noble venues, towns, and landowners—who offered safe haven as we battled the dragons of logistics, we offer our deepest thanks and eternal gratitude. Thy generosity shall not be forgotten.
Now, with this mighty quest completed, the final month of preparation begins! Expect missives and announcements soon. Tickets shall be made available on our website shortly!
