What's better than a Rock Festival & A Renaissance Festival combined?

We say, "NOTHING!"

We're taking our 6th Annual Fall Rockhound Festival and expanding on it with a brand-new Great Raven Renaissance Festival, in Galesburg, Michigan. This will mean more rocks, more entertainment and more vendors for a great 2-day event, starting in Oct. 2026. Now we'll feature over 200 vendors, live music, sword fighting, educational opportunities, great food, spirits and more. We are SO excited!

Don't sweat to death in the middle of summer going to other events, come enjoy the autumn splendor in Glenshire in the woods and along the river at GRRF!!

NEW - Exclusive to the Great Raven Renaissance Festival - participation wrist bands. Participants that do NOT wish to be called on during shows or otherwise interacted with while attending the festival can wear a free wristband, available at any entry gate. Make sure you keep the wrist band visible while enjoying your day with us and the entertainers will make sure they let you enjoy the festival in peace.

WARNING: SCAMS are very common when it comes to trying to sell you booth space at an event or tickets to an event. Make sure you always check reviews for the person posting, never purchase booth space without a contract or application, always buy your tickets from the website or front gates ONLY, never send money via comments on a social media post. We want to try and help prevent our patrons from being scammed. When in doubt call our offices!

The simple act of buying your admission tickets ahead of time can help make this event SO much better!

Being our first year of this new combined event, we are asking patrons and the ren family to consider buying your ticket ahead of time as opposed to waiting to purchase at the gate. Why does this matter? Think of it like a GoFundMe, for our first year we have a LOT of site work to do and it all costs money. By simply purchasing your tickets ahead of time, you help us get that admission money earlier, so we can reinvest it into the event itself to make our first year for this new festival as grand as all that will follow.

As a special thank you, we'll offer pre-sales tickets at a discount until mid-summer next year, so don't delay if you want to save a few bucks.
