Medieval Times and Horsemanship

        Castle                                           Medieval Times Dinner and a great show!

This theme show allows you to enjoy the merriment of a different time and eat with your fingers.  The show happens as the audience eats dinner and cheers for their knight in medieval horsemanship and fighting tests.  It is all a bit silly, but the drinks help get you in the mood and if you become a Lord or Lady, the humiliation level is so great feeling silly is minor, but it is a great way to celebrate a birthday. 

The dressageportions of the show are amazing and the horses are very well trained at every level.  Being married to a professional horseman, spending our vacation watching horses is not our usual choice, but in this case we made an exception and were pleasantly surprised at the high level of execution and the overall ability of these horses. 

If you enjoy a good chicken dinner and do not mind a bit of public humiliation in the name of fun, Medieval Times is a wonderfully entertaining way for family and friends to spend an evening!

Jane,

I went to see Medieval Times years ago with my son and we loved it.  Rooting for your knight really got you to be part of the action.  The demonstrations were wonderful.  I only found one problem, though.  Because you have to eat the chicken with your fingers during the performance, it was a nuisance taking photos.  (Take a bite, wipe fingers, take photo.  Take a bite, wipe fingers, take a photo.)

Brigita It was a sticky, greasy and gooey situation, but worth it in the end, regardless of who's knight won.
