We want all guests to have a great time while being as safe as possible. Our primary rule is all weapons should be sheathed and peace-tied. Foam/LARP/Plastic weapons do not need to be sheathed where sheaths do not exist for their dimensions. Realistic-looking weapons cannot be carried “in hand” and must be peace-tied to your person. Exposed sharpened steel is not permitted. Reproductions of modern-era weapons are strictly not allowed. Metal blades must be zip-tied into their sheath and to your belt or baldric. At no point should a bladed weapon ever be drawn from your side/back. Wooden walking sticks are mobility devices and do not fall under our weapon policy.

Prop firearms of any kind are not permitted inside the Faire. This includes and is not limited to all replica firearms, toys, fantasy firearms, water guns, bubble guns, etc. 

Our security team will check all weapons at the gate to ensure that they are compliant and to offer assistance if needed. If a weapon is deemed non-compliant by the security team or police, you will be asked to return it to your vehicle before you may enter the Faire.

Yes. You may bring your bow if it is unstrung, or strung with yarn (or some other line that cannot hold tension). Arrows must be untipped and cable-tied together and secured to the quiver. Our service team at the entrance gate will assist you if you do not know how to peace tie your weapon.

As stated in the Guest Code of Conduct, glass containers are prohibited because they pose a hazard if they break upon the ground. If you have non-edible decorative plastic potion bottles as part of your costume, those may be permitted. Our security team will check to ensure they cannot fall out of their holders at our security checkpoint.
