Horde Info

The Goblin Horde is a group of goblin-loving humans (and human-loving goblins) in the Portland, Oregon area.

Our activities may include (but are not limited to):

  • Renaissance Faires

  • Costuming workshops

  • Relevant movie premieres - New LOTR or Harry Potter film opening? Now you have a group of friends to show up at the theater in costume with.

  • The Goblin Masquerade - A fantasy night right out of Labyrinth. Grab your goblin mask!
We would especially like to invite performers with a fantasy/fairy/goblin theme to join us for Renaissance Faires and similar events!

(Think Goblin Circus...)
