Ren-NEIGH-Sance Festival.
This is a forums posting to alert everypony that there will be a Renneighsance Festival on the Road to Canterlot that will start on Thursday August 29th and lasting until Monday September 2nd. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renaissance_fair
The Fair will have a general setting of over a thousand years ago after the original defeat of Discord (before Nightmare Moon appeared). The Mayor of Ponyville by rumor has wrangled Shadow Mane, owner of the Dancing Dragons Inn into organizing it.
Rumors report he has contacted carpenters, wood cutters. Evening going as far as to head to Canterlot historical to get reference materials. Help form some of the historians to recreate various aspects. There will be dancing, games, story telling, swordplay, Even rumors that there will be a full scale Jousting field perhaps from some of the Canterlot Royal guard themselves.
Rumors abound that Shadow Mane has even sent formal letters of invitations, to the Princesses Cadence, Celestia, Luna, and Twilight Sparkle. As well as two princes Blueblood and Shining Armor, (although there are a couple rumors some hope that Prince Blueblood will not be able to attend).
The reason for these rumors is there are reports of old fashion thrones are being crafted, each with the symbol of the respective noble adorning them.
OOC information
Schedule on Thursday August 22 - Wednesday the 28th, there will be some Pre festival set up on the Road to Canterlot room.
On the 29th, Thursday the Festival will start.
OOCly I am looking for various things to actually happen, Such as story tellers, merchants, bakers, crafts ponies. Displays of magic, magic shows. As well as ponies dressing up and acting the parts of ponies from that time. Perhaps we could even have some reenactments of various historical battles, such as the defeat of Discord, the banishing of King Sombra... Maybe the tragedy of Nightmare Moon.
