Day trip from Chicago
Bristol Renaissance Faire in Bristol, WI
This Renaissance Faire was on weekends in July and August when we were there. Check the website for exact dates/times. It was like being back in time with the old shops and dirt walk ways. It is mostly shops; but there were food vendors and shows to watch also. There was a rock wall and a short zipline too.
It is about an hour from Chicago; depending what part you’re in.
