Renaissance Festival

The international award-winning Florida Renaissance Festival held at Quiet Waters Park in Deerfield Beach, welcomes students and educators to step back in time to learn about this fascinating period in history. Our school program will bring to life 16th Century Europe and is appropriate for all ages. Costumed performers, stage acts and crafts people will offer students an informative view of the Renaissance. So much fun and educational, we call it “Edutainment”!!   You may choose to bring lunch or purchase food and beverage on the Festival grounds. Please note: We collect monies for school days in advance to facilitate getting students inside the Festival grounds and immersed in the 16th century as quickly as possible. We do not use physical tickets for school days. A member of our staff will do a head count based upon your registration form. Please have a copy of your registration form with each vehicle. If you bring more students than initially registered, please plan on exact change (@ $7 each) to expedite processing. Your cooperation will assist us in creating a more rewarding experience for each and every student. Use the forms below to print out and send your registration. It is suggested that your students bring spending money for games, rides and/or souvenirs. Lunch prices average $6.00, Drinks are $3.00. Games and rides average $1-$2 each and souvenirs start at $3. For example: $15 to $20 will buy lunch, a drink or two and leave them enough for a souvenir. In response to your survey answers, we will be presenting even more educational presentations. Look
