Message-ID: FESTIVALS INTERNATIONAL -News Release- -for immediate release "Preparations for Time-Travel in Papillion" For the 11th installment of the region's popular NEBRASKA RENAISSANCE FAIRE & Medieval Pageant the producing staff are now preparing the grounds and buildings at the Bellevue Berry & Pumpkin Ranch for the thousands of visitors to step back in time. Signs of modern machinery and today's tech are disguised so that patrons to the festival feel as if they have stepped back in time over 500 years. "It's not an exact duplicate of Medieval days. We're just having fun, after all," says Ed Schaefer, owner of the Bellevue Berry Farm. "It's a lot of work to get this all set up by early spring, but the people who attend year after year really make it worth while." In addition to the open-air shows, shopping, festival foods, and rides this year the Pirate Pub, next to the beached pirate ship, will have a new landscaped outdoor dining area. "The perfect place for your fish and chips while you listen to the pub performers or watch main stage shows at the ship," claims Ed. The 2013 NEBRASKA RENAISSANCE FAIRE held at the Bellevue Berry & Pumpkin Ranch, 11001 S. 48th Street, Papillion, takes place May 4/5th with a 'Combat & Battle' theme, full of sword and weapon shows; and on May 11/12th with a 'Knights & Jousting' weekend, featuring the equestrian stunt troupe Joust Evolution. The gates are open, rain or shine, from 11am until 6pm. Tickets are $12 for adults, $7 for kids 3 - 12 with tots free. *Special discounted tickets are available Wednesday March 6th through Friday March 15th at http://nerenfaire.eventbrite.com/ while supplies last. Full price tickets are available after March 15th.
