The Georgia Renaissance Festival returns to Fairburn, GA, from Saturday, April 9th to Monday, May 30th in 2022.  This is about a 30-minute drive from downtown Atlanta.

The festival is open on Saturdays and Sundays, plus Memorial Day Monday.

Hours are 10:30 a.m. to 6 p.m.

There is quite a bit to do at the Georgia Renaissance Festival and it is a family-friendly event with plenty for the kiddos. It’s a rain or shine event, so dress accordingly and pack ponchos and umbrellas if the forecast leaves any doubt.

There is food and drink (with a Renaissance theme!) available for purchase. You’ll also find plenty of entertainment and an artisans market for shopping. If you’re interested in special themed weekends (pirates, fairy tales, wizards, etc.), you can see them here.

Full price admission at the gate is:

• Adults (13 and over) — $23.95
• Children 6 to 12 — $11.95
• Under 6 — FREE
• See the available discounts below

Parking is FREE!

Location:
6905 Virlyn B. Smith Rd.
Fairburn, GA 30213

You can get more information at the Festival website, including various ways to upgrade your experience, like the daily pub crawl and fairy tea party.

Deals & Discounts for GA RenFest

Unfortunately, there are far fewer ways to save this year. We’re not seeing the opening weekend BOGO deal this year, for example.

The easiest ways to save money right now are through the encouraged online purchase, and through the Groupon offer, below.

NOTE  that sales tax is added to tickets, and Big Tickets charges a fairly reasonable ticketing fee of about $1.60 per ticket.

When you buy tickets, you’ll choose mobile delivery or the print-at-home option.

.

Online purchase deal — up to $4 off

Buy online in advance and save $4 on adult admission (13+) and save $2 on children’s admission (age 6 to 12).

That’s just $19.95 for adults and $9.95 for kids from 6 to 12. Kids five and under are always FREE.

This deal is good for any day of the festival.

NOTE: Online purchase is strongly encouraged in 2021. There will be a limited number of tickets available at the box office — so play it smart and buy in advance.

Memorial Day weekend military deals

According to the website, there are special discounts on Memorial Day Monday at the box office for active military, veterans, first responders, and their immediate families.

If you’re interested, we advise calling ahead to see what discounts you are eligible for — because we don’t usually advise heading to the RenFest without an advance ticket in hand.

The Groupon deal — up to 29% off

Groupon is not yet running this deal in 2022 — but we expect it to return, and we will update you!

While they last, you can get discounted tickets to the Georgia Renaissance Festival, thanks to a deal on Groupon.

With this deal, admission is just $17 for adults and $9 for kids age 6 to 12.

With Groupon there are no added fees and you don’t need a coupon code — just click the link and buy.

These prices are nearly 30% off regular price, and they are selling fast, so don’t delay!

NOTE: You can get up to 8% cashback from Rakuten (formerly Ebates) if you sign up and start a shopping session before you purchase your Groupon. You get the money at the end of each quarter and can have it sent to you via check or PayPal.

This deal gets you a general admission voucher for any weekend during the festival’s run, which is May 1st thru June 13th.

General admission includes access to all entertainment, the Jousting Tournaments, contests and special events, the Children’s Play Kingdom, the Royal Petting Farm, the Juggling School, and more.

Print your Groupon voucher in advance! You’ll need the paper document, because there is no wi-fi at the festival and the cell reception is said to be very spotty.
