Although the first Friday of the fair has been designated a “school day” with extra educational activities and performances for students, it is still open to the general public.
Admission to the Medieval Fair is free.
It is recommended that teachers notify Medieval Fair department with their contact information if they are planning on attending with students. This enables the department to contact you quickly if there are any last-minute schedule changes due to severe weather threats or any other happenings. Teachers or group leaders may contact the department at medievalfair@ou.edu or (405) 325-8610.
There is a new bus drop off at the north end of the park so that students don't have to cross traffic to get to the Fair. Enter Reaves Park at the entrance just south of Timberdell Rd. Bonus - this starts students at the part of Fair with the most educational presentations! Buses can drop off students there and then go park at Lloyd Noble Center.
For end of the day students should go to where the buses are parked at Lloyd Noble Center because there isn't enough space there for all the buses (as many as 80 buses some years) to wait for all the students to arrive. The best plan is to tell students to meet you at T-shirt castle/Archery Range area in the south and then walk over together to Lloyd Noble Center.
The program with descriptions, schedules, and a map is up on the homepage of the website for your reference.
