Medieval Jousting at Stonor Park
26 September, 2020 @ 10:00 am - 27 September, 2020 @ 4:00 pm
The Knights of Royal England will be putting on an epic display of medieval jousting at Stonor Park
A truly memorable jousting tournament will take place during which knights in full armour will stop at nothing, charging full tilt on Andalusian geldings in an attempt to strike their opponent’s shield and knock them out of their saddle. See spectacular horseback stunts as well as foot combat with medieval weaponry.
Falconry Displays
As well as two jousting tournaments a day there will also be regular Falconry displays to fascinate the crowds.
Archery
Do you fancy yourself as a bit of a Robin Hood or an English Longbowman about to head to the Battle of Agincourt? Then try your hand at Archery which will be available all day (extra costs apply).
Mouthwatering Food
Enjoy a Hog Roast, Stonor Gourmet Venison Burgers, Venison as well as Pork baps, local Rebellion Beer, a wide range of soft drinks, ice creams and coffee stalls. You can also buy wooden swords, shields and bows and arrows from the Armoury.
Medieval Costume Competition
Dust off your chainmail and be part of the fun in our Medieval Costume Competition. There will be a prize of a bottle of mead for the adult in the best medieval dress and a wooden sword and shield for the best dressed child each day.
We’re Good to Go
Stonor Park is fully qualified by Visit Britain’s We’re Good to Go tourism programme meaning that we are adhering to Government and public health guidance and have the required processes in place. The Knights of Royal England have also been performing a very popular programme of performances throughout August that have been specially developed to operate safely during the Covid-19 outbreak. Two metre circles will be marked around the arena from where spectators can watch the performances in their own family bubbles.
