A Friends of Faire Membership does not grant you admission to the Faire. You will need tickets or a Season Pass to get into the Faire itself. Every adult who wishes to enter the Friends of Faire (VIP) Garden must have a membership.

Membership is open to anyone including guests, merchants, and performers. An honored division of Renaissance Entertainment Productions’ national Friends of Faire organization, a Bristol FOF membership includes a variety of benefits ranging from discounted tickets, a private on-site garden, and your own privies – just to name a few!

Questions?

I've been coming up to Faire for many years. Three years ago I joined Friends of Faire. I have to say that this was the best move I have ever made! The people who work there (henches) do such a fabulous job of helping everyone, watching out for overheating/dehydration and just being fantastic! The name "Friends" of faire certainly has made me feel like a welcome friend at faire. Each one takes the time to greet me as I walk into the garden, and those smiles each week keep me going through the week. I regret closing weekend knowing it will be many more months before I see my Friends. ~ Kristen North
