What would you look like if you were haunting an abandoned amusement park? We can't wait to find out!BTW this is an attire theme, we will not actually be bringing in rusty old haunted carnival rides. But we may have at least one faire-themed carnival game that will probably be named something like Pachinko ;)Oh! Guys! We have a tight rope walker!!! He's setting up a rig in the middle of the faire so look up! And he's gonna light it on fire.This faire's highlightsFire wire walker!Floating witch!Blade juggler!Saint Valentine and the Love Bugs, an all-queer drag band returns to the Freehold stage!Elena Stenkina raging the accordionFaireoke - a creepy singalong starring youHalloweekend in-person discount ticketsFit inspiration:gothic circuscorecreepy clownsHarlequin CoutureAmerican Horror Story: Freakshow vibesAll of the black and white and red stripesBonus points if you show up as an actual carnival tent https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/a2ac98b0-abfa-11f1-8156-4590bdedae04-rimg-w1110-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/a2bc5020-abfa-11f1-8156-4590bdedae04-rimg-w1110-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/a2cc7cc0-abfa-11f1-8156-4590bdedae04-rimg-w1110-h740-dc080808-gmir.jpg What we cram into 5 short but memorable hours:That unmistakable Lunar Faire vibeThe aesthetic aloneFaire fashionThe best, weirdest, and witchiest vendors aroundPotions Lab (non-alcoholic)Food trucks!Side Quest for vendor discounts and treats!Trinket trading!Lunar Care community outreachSafe and inclusive surroundingsCuriositiesChaos almost guaranteedEntertainment for all agesCollectible wristbandGigantic lettersGroup spellmaking with the Lunar QueeneMagickal book exchange (sometimes, check for updates)The Lunar Faire Drag ShowFire dancing by DiiiotimaMusic by Marin ContiniGallery Medium Reading by Shauna the Amazing Tap Dancing MediumBig 3 Roasts by Doctor Witch the Astrological HecklerSound Healing by the Divine EnsembleEgg detox by Noma's HouseHomespun Handmade Carousel (sometimes)Drum circleFlute wizardBracelet social experimentFortunes toldNighttimeNew shitOld shitA whimsical faire nameSideshow actsFairy hair, henna, and face paintMusic: scheduled and wanderingCool people like youCool people unlike youMore!?Sometimes Appearing 👀Aerial artistsHomespun Carousel by our pal Al GoriCrow the Songbird Ryan CanuelSurprise guests and charactersFor immediate event and ticket release info, please follow our Eventbrite host page!Day-of TicketsTickets will be available at the gate for our full price: $25.
