Make sure to eat at Zumos! I actually know almost everyone who works there and I worked for the owner at TRF. I suggest the chicken marinara but instead of marinara the pesto sauce.

We are gonna be there ouo

I'm interested! Think suiting is an option? Any other suiters interested in suiting?

Speaking as an observer and non-fursuiter, non-rennie,

...regularly show up at texas renfaires. People also dress up as fairies, dragons, orks, elves--TONS of elves--and the like. References to fantasy videogames and anime are more common in recent decades.


People sometimes show up as Space Marines and Star Trek personnel talking about 'the holodeck'. These people make renfaire enthusiasts cry. (and if I remember properly in a few cases have been asked not to come back in those costumes)


I'd suggest that it would be respectful to the other attendees at least be able to acknowledge the fantasy theme. Dragons or mythological critters, particularly more realistic ones, are obviously on topic. Neon green husky mascots would probably make the rennies sad inside. A cartoon Robin Hood fox costume would probably be a border case.

There's no posted policy though, so it's all a matter of taste and personal judgement. I'd personally suggest trying to respect the sensibilities of the rennies since it's their show--while it is a mishmash of different fantasy ideas, it's more strongly themed than a furry or anime con.



On the practical side, it is outdoors and one will be walking on dirt. I think one of the she-canines (pupcake?) complained of turning partly green from pollen while outdoors in Texas one year. There are sizable public bathrooms with running water, not just port-a-potties, so one can adjust one's self or de-costume if needed.

I have been to other renfairs and always see one person suiting.. However because of the weather lately it might not be the greatest idea to do it outside

Yeah, that faire has a bit of a drainage problem and some sections turn very muddy when it rains. Definitely a consideration!

Where's it at?

...can tell you all the details!

 tyranthusky and myself should be available that day!

Let's hope we can afford it ;u;

I remember going past the sign for this on the way to Austin! o:

I tink it's actually fairy close to where I live; the commercials I've been seeing say "on 290, near Austin."

It's really amazingly close! Details are in that link I posted above!

If you put something together, I'll most likely come. ^_^

Yep we are going!! Would anyone like to car pool?
