Dragon’s Gate Renaissance Faire is returning to Dragon’s Gate Brewery in the Walla Walla Valley, and you’re invited to step straight into the realm.

Bring your crew, bring the kids, bring your best cloak or crown, and roam the marketplace, catch live shows, and cheer as knights charge down the list in full thunder-and-steel glory. Come hungry, come curious, and come ready to stay awhile, because Dragon’s Gate isn’t just hosting a faire… we’re opening the gates to an experience you’ll be talking about long after the banners come down.

Two Shows!
Live Jousting Tournaments and Armored Knight Combat are the crown jewel of the Dragon’s Gate Renaissance Faire in the Walla Walla Valley, full-speed knights on horseback, gleaming armor, and the kind of medieval spectacle that stops you in your tracks. This is our headliner show: real performance combat with thunderous charges, splintering lances, and fearless skill on full display. It’s the live-action moment everyone talks about afterward, the “you should’ve seen it” story that turns into a yearly tradition.
And trust me, you won’t be sitting quietly on the sidelines. You’ll feel the ground shake when the horses surge down the list, hear the steel ring out under the open sky, and get swept up in the crowd as the arena erupts. Pick your favorite knight, raise your voice, and cheer like you’re part of the court, because at Dragon’s Gate, the crowd energy is half the magic.
Whether you’re searching for a family-friendly Renaissance Faire near Walla Walla, an unforgettable weekend event in Eastern Oregon, or the best live entertainment experience in the Walla Walla Valley, this is the place to be. Come for the knights, stay for the atmosphere, the adrenaline, and that rare feeling that you’ve stepped into another time (with your favorite people right beside you).
