Escondido faire is almost unique in that it
occurs on two different sets of dates each year:
at the start of faire season and at the end.
It's a smaller faire, with just a couple of
stages for entertainment, but it has a
substantial number of participants and quite a
few patrons (visitors).
I like this faire and make a point to visit
each of the two versions each year (the start
and the end of the faire season). There are a
large number of vendors, and for it's size, a
very large number of entertainers.
This year there was Adam the Juggler (always
a favorite of mine), She-enedra, Tribe Roman
Morga, the Merry Wives of Windsor, Fowl Tales,
Kenny Klein, A Fool and his Lady, and several
other acts. Last year the Belles of Bedlam also
attended.
This faire does not have a joust, but it does
include a very nice battle reenactment. The
Queen's show and court are very active, moving
all around the faire doing parades and such.
All in all, this faire is well worth at least
a visit a year.
