Step into a World of Magic at the Celtic Winter Faire: A Renaissance Festival Like No Other!

Palm Beach County, FL —

Celtic Winter Faire returns to Smythe Pavilion at John Prince Park on December 5–6, 12–13 and 19–20, from 10 am to 5 pm each day. Presented by Eachraidh Outreach Inc, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organisation, the event adds a third weekend and more performers for its 2026 season.

This year’s theme, The Year of the Kelpie and Selkies, centres on a visiting Kelpie and Selkie court, bringing the folklore of rivers and seas into the Faire’s fictional Isle of Dunsky. Guests can meet its inhabitants as they explore a Renaissance-style village of music, storytelling and handmade holiday gifts.

The expanded entertainment programme includes the World Famous Gnome Race, Horseless Joust, belly dancers, mermaids and live performances across two taverns. Holiday encounters include Santa, Krampus and Mari Lwyd, while the market offers handcrafted gifts and refreshments including turkey legs and ale.

Hands-on experiences remain central to the Faire. Sword classes with the Palm Beach Sword School, the traditional archery range, watercolour classes and visits with Santa are included with admission. Guests can also watch blacksmithing demonstrations and try their hand at the anvil in “have-a-go” sessions, both included with admission.

“Expanding to three weekends gives guests more time to explore, return, and experience the Faire in a deeper way,” said Ben Kerr, event director.

Single-day tickets are $30, or $25 per person when four or more group tickets are purchased for the same date. A $100 season pass covers all six days. Children under five enter free with a ticketed adult. Parking is free. Food, drinks and vendor purchases are separate.

FAE Festivals provides event management for Eachraidh Outreach Inc, with staffing by Corsair’s Wares. Media passes, interviews, filming access and media-partnership enquiries can be arranged through Ben Kerr.
