Lunar Faire Night Market: Mythical Creatures at Jungle Habitat 8/15

Shopping, attractions, food, and mystery tunnels! A summer Jersey night you can't miss! Read on for all the details!

The theme is Mythical Creatures!

It's time to live the cosplay fantasy of your dreams! The creative opportunity with a mythical creatures theme is pretty limitless. Another faire where I can't wait to see what you all come up with. Maybe we should have a mythical red carpet...

Here's a non-exhaustive list of some of the most mythical of all creatures that I googled for you: Loch Ness Monster, Bigfoot, vampire, basilisk, dragon, werewolf, gnome, boogie man, goblin, unicorn, phoenix, mermaid, zombie, hydra, you get the picture.

This faire's highlights:

• Isabel Pluchino, harpist
• New live mural painting by Ziren
• Fogo Azul - a women-led Brazilian samba reggae drumline marching band
• The creepy tunnels that half the people don't find!

Fit inspiration:

• A creature
• A ghost creature
• A creature you made up
• A creature Clinton Road coughed up
• A creature the Jersey Devil eats
• Frank costume from Donnie Darko
• Cyclops, triclops (obviously you wouldn't want to show up as just a biclops)
• The Nothing from The Neverending Story
• Every single character in The Neverending Story
• Whatever you want regardless of zoological reference

Wait is this the spot where the animals used to freely shred your soft-top convertibles?

Day-of Tickets

Tickets will be available at the gate for our full price: $25. That's why your best bet is to go presale. Presale ends day of faire at 3:33 am.

Kids under 10 are free

This Faire is Rain or Shine.

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

No Pets Please!

Please leave your pets at home to avoid being turned away. The faire is not safe for animals. Additionally, because of venues, insurance, and people afraid of animals, we would LOVE for you to be considerate of everyone else and respect this rule.

Parking is $5

Parking is on-site! But the State of NJ charges $5 per vehicle to park. The money goes directly to them. Please bring $5 cash and you get bonus good karma if you have exact change to move the line along!!!
