Ironwood Fantasy Fair

Step Into a World of Fantasy at the Ironwood Fantasy Fair

Have you ever wished you could step through a portal into a world of knights, wizards, mythical creatures, and epic adventures? On Saturday, August 15, that world comes to life as the Ironwood Fantasy Fair transforms The Spire in downtown Kingston into an immersive celebration of imagination, creativity, and fantasy.

Designed for dreamers of all ages, Ironwood Fantasy Fair is more than just an event. It’s a full-day experience where fantasy fans, families, gamers, cosplayers, artists, crafters, and curious adventurers can explore a magical realm filled with entertainment, interactive experiences, workshops, and unique vendors.

From the moment the doors open, you’ll find something happening around every corner. Browse artisan vendors offering handcrafted fantasy-inspired creations, discover talented performers, meet fellow fantasy enthusiasts, and explore workshops that invite you to learn new skills and dive deeper into your favourite worlds.

Throughout the day, the Wizard’s Stage will be alive with exciting performances and interactive entertainment. Meet the legendary Level 99 Wizard, enjoy Enchanted Forest Princess Storytime, cheer on competitors during the Ironwood Tournament, laugh along with Dungeons & Improv, witness the thrilling action of Blades of Glory, meet the King and Queen during a royal photo opportunity, and experience live performances from Anthea Fever to close out the daytime festivities.

Inside Nexus Hall, visitors can participate in an incredible lineup of hands-on workshops and presentations. Learn about creating an Augmented Reality Medieval Village, discover the art of storytelling during The Five Points of Writing Fiction, explore traditional fibre arts with Drop Spinning: Demystifying the Making of Yarn, master tabletop roleplaying in How to DM from Beginner to Advanced, create your own Succulent Terrarium, or craft a beautiful keepsake during Framed in Nature: A Botanical Moss Art Experience.

Families will love the welcoming daytime atmosphere, while hobbyists and fantasy fans can connect with creators and fellow enthusiasts who share their interests.
