Cobb County Public Services’

Renaissance Festival

March 28, 2026 11AM - 4PM

Hear ye, hear ye! A grand decree, a historic affair for all to see! Mark thy calendars don’t be late, Cobb’s noble gathering - save the date!

We are excited to announce an inaugural Cobb County Public Services’  Renaissance Faire taking place on Saturday, March 28, 2026, from 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. at the Mountain View campus in Marietta, Georgia. This new event is being presented by Cobb PARKS in collaboration with Cobb Libraries and Senior Services, and is designed as a fun, single-day family-friendly prelude to the Georgia Renaissance Festival in Fairburn.

Our goal is to bring the sights, sounds, and activities of the Renaissance era closer to home—right here in our own community. We envision an afternoon filled with demonstrations, performances, food, crafts, and interactive activities that showcase the spirit of the era.

Currently we are looking for a variety of vendors and artists for our artisan market, food court area, and demonstration section. If you would like to sell at our event, please follow the links below.

  • Applications will be juried and due to limited room available we will not be able to accept everyone.

  • Acceptance emails will be sent out in January, with the final cutoff date for entering an application on February 1st. Due to limited room, applications may close sooner.

  • The $10 application fee must be paid through CivicRec using the link below or paid in person at The Art Place. There is no booth fee.

  • No tents, chairs, or tables will be provided. There will be no power supply for artisan market vendors. If you are accepted, you are guaranteed a 10x10 spot only.

  • This event will occur rain or shine. Please plan accordingly.

  • Please read the vendor application and rules thoroughly. Noncompliance with Cobb County’s guidelines will not be tolerated.
