Travel back into a time when giant, fire-breathing dragons and brave knights roamed the land! Come join Hawk Creek Wildlife Center for its largest annual fundraiser with a medieval twist! WILD RENN FEST on the weekends of July 15, 16, 22 & 23, from 11:00am-4:00pm is highlighted by nationally renowned Jarod Miller of Animal Exploration, the aerial acrobatics of free-flying birds during The Royal Tournament Flying Bird Show, up-close animal encounters, live demonstrations and the Niagara Highland Athletics Club!

Each event day is an opportunity to explore Hawk Creek’s NEW facility & resident wildlife with a medieval flair! Television celebrity Jarod Miller will share his eclectic collection of wildlife from around the world during his daily shows. Experience the awe and wonder of majestic birds of prey soaring directly overhead during the daily free flying bird shows! Children can become dragonologists as they explore the fact versus fiction of these scaly beasts and receive a free token to begin their own dragon collection (supplies limited).

Exhibitors and entertainers are only the tip of the sword for these triumphant days, you never know what will show up right around the corner! Hawk Creek’s medieval naturalists will be dispersed throughout the festival grounds for up-close and personal encounters with local and exotic wildlife. 

Delicious food and vendors selling their wares will also be available in a marketplace atmosphere, while kings, queens, jesters and peasants entertain audiences of all ages.
