Huzzah Twilight Renaissance Faire returns for second year in downtown Erie

Food, fun, and medieval festivities took place at a Renaissance Faire Saturday night.

The second annual Huzzah Twilight Renaissance Faire was held at the hidden gem garden and events space behind Tipsy Bean Cafe.

The owner of the cafe says it's a fundraiser for the Erie Health District Collaborative that builds funds for revitalization and improvement efforts for area neighborhoods

The fair is also a way to build up economic diversity. The owner said the fair was family-friendly for all to enjoy.

"I think some of the things that people have enjoyed the most tonight have been our live music from Matt Hughes came all the way up from Pittsburgh," said Gisele Littrell, the owner of Tipsy Bean Cafe. "We added a few fun things like our cotton candy our mac and cheese bar so I think overall there was something everyone could enjoy young old kids it's pet friendly it's handicap accessible."

Littrell says their efforts will continue in the erie community year after year as their signature fundraising event.
