Oregon Renaissance Faire returns to Clackamas County Fairgrounds

Swords flash in the sunlight, ale sates the thirst of visitors, and the Vale of Dunrose offers up its treats and treasures with equal aplomb.

All that and more are part of a newly reconfigured Oregon Renaissance Faire in Canby. This year’s edition has expanded to three consecutive weekends — June 3-4, 10-11, and 17-18 — at the Clackamas County Fairgrounds. In addition, the grounds have been reconfigured and the old ticketing system has been replaced by a system that organizers hope will alleviate some of the issues from a year ago.
