Experiences
At Tell-Tale Steampunk Festival, we don’t believe in standing on the sidelines of the galaxy. From daring adventures and hands-on workshops to immersive entertainment, mischievous games, teas, tastings, and interactive experiences, our mission is to make every passenger part of the story. Whether you’re a seasoned sky pirate, curious inventor, wandering space rogue, or first-time traveler aboard our airship, there’s excitement waiting around every corner of the cosmos. Below are just a few of the adventures awaiting your crew.
Tea Dueling is a delightfully dramatic steampunk pastime where brave competitors dip biscuits into tea and attempt to outlast their opponents before their cookie crumbles. Combining Victorian elegance, strategy, quick reflexes, and a healthy dose of chaos, this fan-favorite activity is equal parts competition, comedy, and tea-time tradition.
Hands-on workshops are fully immersive, all-supplies-included experiences led by expert creators from across the realms of craft and invention. You’ll be guided step-by-step as you bring your creation to life, and at the end of the workshop, you leave not just inspired, but with a finished piece you made yourself, ready to take home as a souvenir of your adventure.
At Tell-Tale Steampunk Festival, our vendor hall is filled with handmade creations from talented artisans—clothing, accessories, home décor, books, and more. Every item is crafted by hand, offering unique treasures you won’t find anywhere else.
Panels cover a wide range of topics where you can learn, be entertained, and often jump right into the conversation. From deep dives into steampunk lore to creative skills, storytelling, and interactive discussions, our panels are designed to engage the audience as active participants—not just observers.
We bring the interactive games bring the mischief to life. Join fellow adventurers in social strategy favorites like Werewolf, or test your nerve and luck in a high-stakes Liars Dice tournament. Every game is designed for laughter, intrigue, and full audience participation—where everyone has a role in the story.
