Florida State Renaissance Festival
The Italian Renaissance Festival
Adopted in 1994
The Renaissance Historical Society of Florida was founded in 1982 by the Society's Director, Joe Allen, and by George Earl Brown and Dan Fitzgerald. The Society has gained much recognition within the last 21 years. The largest event of the year is the presentation of the only Italian Renaissance Festival in the Western HemisphereŽ. Previously held at the Villa Vizcaya Gardens, for the past 21 years, we are bringing to you this magnificent event at the Famed Hialeah Park for our 22nd anniversary.
