Knights of Arkley

Knights of Arkley

The scene is set with Medieval style tents, tilt, quintains and weapons, transforming your arena into a tiltyard of the Middle Ages. The knights and their horses, dressed in glittering costumes, show off their speed and daring as they ride in the Skills-at-Arms, then, in true chivalrous spirit, confront each other with lance and shield as they 'joust' along the tilt.

Squires and Pages on foot, our own commentator, music and fanfares, complete the scene, as you are transported back in time to re-live a glorious bygone age.
