The first thing I must say:

This is the last South Jersey faire until August! You have now been given faire warning ;)

Ok back to the event details...

Fairies!!!!

This one is the fairy faire!!! Dress like a fairy!

The fairy faire was one of the cutest faires we had last year and we're so excited to bring it back this year! But we're ramping it up. We're having a fairy cottage contest! We firmly support that fairies should exploit our fervent crafting community. If you are in any way inclined, inspired, or excited by the idea of creating the most perfect home for a fairy friend, then you absolutely need to craft a fairy home. Do you have any idea how expensive fairy real estate is? Do you know what it takes to prequalify for a fairy mortgage? Nothing. Because they aren't psychotic capitalists they can just like live in a house for free because they're on earth like normal animals. But that's not the point YOU SHOULD STILL MAKE THEM A VERY ADORABLE HOUSE!!!

(Mine is not gonna look like that)

BUT....Whichever cottage the fairies love the most will win! What is the criteria? I don't know I'm not a fairy! How do you win? I don't know just like make it really cute! Fairies are fickle I can't begin to know how to answer these questions. What do you win? Well Lunar Faire will give you a Faire-in-a-box, but I think the better gifts are on the fairy end of things. You will be crowned fairy royalty in a private fairy ceremony even we aren't invited to and be given information of the location of a fairy portal to fairy land. I can only guarantee the Lunar Faire box but I swear the fairies have promised the other stuff. And that stuff sounds pretty cool I'll say that.

The Lunar Queene will host the fairy cottage contest in the Lunar Queenedom after the spell!

Rain Date

This is an all weather event. The only reason we would cancel is if the weather is extremely severe or like the parking fields are snow covered but our blizzard wizard is on retainer to prevent this.

Refunds

All ticket sales are final. No refunds will be issued or transfers honored for other events unless we cancel or reschedule.

No Furry Friends Please

Pets other than service animals are prohibited. You may have seen people bring pets. Those people might not have seen the FAQs on the website or this part of the ticket, or the posts about it, or may be ignoring all of these. But please, out of respect for the venue, and, more importantly, non-pet people, and our insurance policy, please leave your furry friends at home. You will be turned away if you have a non-service animal pet with you.

Children

Should I bring them?

Depends how feral they are. If they are at least mildly civilized they’ll be thoroughly entertained and will remain undevoured.

Are they free?

So you decided to take the plunge and make a new generation of cool kids. Nice. 10 and under are free.

Do a lot of kids go?

A lot.

I've heard this is wholesome. But is it?

As you can see from the above questions, people proudly bring their children. Without getting into a philosophical argument about subjectivity and moral outrage, this is generally a wholesome and safe event. People are friendly, loving, inclusive, and peaceful. But it isn't sanitized. The map might say "Long-Ass Road" and our schedule includes active and participatory spellwork and we do not censor adult vendor products (though most are not overt). We occasionally sell a drink that looks like blood in a bag. But it's non-alcoholic, as are all our potions. And while there is absolutely nothing inherently dangerous to encounter, we're likely always going to walk a line of "propriety." And maybe, as a result, pioneer a whole new unapologetic version of wholesome. It is up to you and your parenting style to decide what you personally find objectionable and what is best for your own children. Our children attend.

Photos

You might have your picture taken and we might post it on our socials. If that's a problem, tell someone.

Covid Stuff

Mask mandates are rapidly changing and we are a compassionate crowd! Please bring one, and wear one when appropriate or asked. We will comply with all mandates as they roll out closer to the event date and ask for your cooperation and empathy.

Additionally, exposure to COVID-19 is an inherent risk in any public location where people are present; we cannot guarantee you will not be exposed during your visit. The CDC advises that older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at higher risk for severe illness from Coronavirus. Attendees should evaluate their own risk in determining whether to attend. Don't come if you're sick, showing symptoms, or generally cantankerous. People who show no symptoms can spread Coronavirus if they are infected, any interaction with the general public poses an elevated risk of being exposed to Coronavirus. By coming to Lunar Faire, you acknowledge and agree that you assume these inherent risks associated with attendance.
