Colorado Medieval Festival:
A personal favorite, a piece of history finds its way to Loveland this weekend as some of the best medieval impressionists put on fantastic shows for us common folk. Meet real knights, see lances clash in jousts, and eat some age-accurate food(try the turkey legs)! More information can be found on the ironically modern website.
