This Illinois Castle Delivers Ren-Fest Energy Year-Round

Walking around with a turkey leg and a black and tan, watching the competitions of the knights, the forged works of the smiths, and being enveloped by the smell of incense. It’s a unique immersive experience that only comes around once a year, unless you go to the Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament in Schaumburg, Illinois.
