The 2025 Medieval Fair takes place April 4-6, from 10am to 7pm all three days in the city of Norman's Reaves Park (2501 S Jenkins Ave., Norman, OK 73072).

Step back in time for a day of revels at the Medieval Fair. Enjoy mirth and merriment with kings, queens, knights and fools as the kingdom comes alive.

Held annually since 1977, this medieval themed arts festival features educational exhibits, arts, crafts, food, games, demonstrations and ongoing entertainment at eight stages where the whole family can enjoy minstrels, dancing, theater, jugglers, knights jousting on horseback, human chess games, brightly costumed characters including King Arthur, mermaids, and the fair's royal court of King Edward III.

Browse through the medieval village of nearly 200 art and craft booths offering unique and handcrafted wares of pottery, wood, stained glass, armor, costumes, fairy wings, jewelry, leather crafts, hair garlands, and much more. Watch master crafters demonstrating their skills including blacksmithing, stone carving, and leather working.
