  • On Saturday, the Montana Renaissance Festival held its All Hallows Medieval Fantasy Faire at North Park to raise funds for improved pickleball and basketball courts, with proceeds going to the Billings Industrial Revitalization District — nearly 3,000 guests checked in and 7,000 to 8,000 are expected this weekend. The event continues today from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. amid rain that did not stop community joy — organizers say the fundraiser will help revitalize the park.  KTVQ
