1 Mercutio: Medieval Faire?
2 Armoured knight: Yes. We dress up and pretend it’s the Dark Ages instead of the modern 16th century.
3 Armoured knight: I presume you’re going there too with this fine dragon likeness?
4 Mercutio: 16th century nerds. Who’d have thought?
4 Shakespeare: There are more of us than you realise.

We've talked about Renaissance Fairs before. Presumably people who lived in the Renaissance had Medieval Fairs. And people who lived in Medieval times had Greco-Roman Fairs. And the Ancient Geeks Greeks and Romans had Babylonian Fairs, or whatever.

EDIT: Forum poster John Campbell writes:

The Renaissance totally had Medieval Faires. Tournaments continued long after they had ceased to serve a useful purpose as combination training, job interview, and income stream for itinerant knights, and the gear got safer and less practical for actual fighting as time went on. A lot of the notion that plate armor was too heavy and cumbersome to move in comes from Renaissance-era tournament jousting armor, which was designed not for actual fighting but to keep the wearer as safe as possible while they engaged in what was basically re-enactment jousting. It allowed barely enough movement for the wearer to clamber onto their horse from a mounting block, and then often other plates were bolted on, and that was okay because all you had to do was sit on a horse and move one arm enough to point a lance. Some of the late jousting armor even had spring-loaded clockwork mechanisms in it so that breastplates would explode dramatically when struck.
