About

Legendary joust at Carisbrooke Castle

Experience the exhilarating spectacle of speed and skill as four legendary knights compete in the grand medieval joust at Carisbrooke Castle. See lances shatter, feel the thunder of hooves and hear the roar of the crowd as reputations are won and lost.

Cheer for your favourite knight

Each knight represents a character from myth or legend - The Wyvern, The Wildman, Sir Lancelot and Jason of the Argonauts. Choose your champion and cheer them on to victory - or console them in defeat.

Medieval experience

As spectators cheer their knight and merry music fills the air, immerse yourself in medieval life and meet characters from the past.
