Jousting Experience Day
About the experience
It's time to accept the challenge and train to join the round table at our Jousting Experience in Warwickshire. Allow yourself to be immersed in the medieval surroundings and get into the spirit dressing in costume and armour. You will learn jousting on horseback and perfect your cavalry skills. Start your session by getting your own title and coat of arms so you are ready for battle. Learn the history of the sport in your briefing by an experienced team before you have a shot at Quintain, tilt rings and Pig Sticking. In the morning you will have the opportunity to learn sword choreography but don’t forget in the afternoon you will face the big Gauntlet challenge, where all you will learn is put to the test, if you pass you will earn your Knighthood.
