![]() She got a knighting ceremony by the queen, and a light up epee sword. Afterwards we walked through their short but interesting torture museum, looked at their shop items, and took a group photo with the birthday girl. They lowered a net when the tilting started to protect the crowd from flying javelin bits. The knights were well trained and we all enjoyed the fighting choreography. It was not too cold (as I had been warned about) We didn't have much elbow room at the long tables - larger folks might have issues. There was a simple plot led by the queen and her lords. Then some jousting contests involving spearing rings and hitting targets with javelins. They had a variety of alcoholic drinks in souvenir mugs and glasses you could keep (additional purchases) - one of them was even a drinking horn with stand! They showed off a variety of fancy horse steps and a brief falconry demo. Occasionally the waiters would block your view of the show, but they were pretty good about staying moving. They gave out hot hand/face wipes after the main course, which was nice since you have to eat with your hands. I enjoyed the caramel ice cream most of all. The food was pretty good and was served gradually throughout the show. We were in the blue section with our group of about 14 spread out in a long line on the 4th tier. ![]() Please note that you have to enter through the mall! The best entrance for that is between the Burlington Coat Factory and Off Broadway shoes. Traffic was bad so we arrived right at 4pm and didn't have time to do anything but be seated. We are goofy geeks and love Renaissance Faires, so we are bit biased about the awesomeness of jousting. I have always wanted to visit here and when a friend said she wanted to hold her 37th birthday party here, I was all in. We enjoyed seeing the horses, cheering for our yellow knight (even though he did not win – there were 6 different sections so 6 different knights in competition), jousting, and seeing the falcon fly around (very neat). Overall we liked the Medieval Times show and I could see going back if we brought some friends to see them enjoy it. Out of the Pirate Voyage and Medieval shows – comparing the two – I do prefer the Pirate Voyage – I thought the acting and overall show was much more entertaining and the service better. The show is as much fun as you make of it, go with some friends, shout, cheer, and have a good time and you will have a blast and it’ll be worth the two hours! We did buy the $2 admission to go to the Torture museum and that was interesting and worth it for some odd / scary objects for torture. The food was good and enough food to fill you up if you eat it all. We did notice that our service was slow compared to the VIP people that sat in front of us – also if you get VIP you get to sit closer to the action. They did have upgrade options to be a VIP but we chose not to do that – you get a picture, flag, faster service, etc. The chorography was decent – you could tell it was staged but that is already known anyway. You can look online at the menu and see if it suits you but if you have food allergies or anything or just eat vegetarian they can suit your needs you just have to let them know. The food is more similar than the show itself. We have been to the Pirate Voyage Dinner and Theater place in Myrtle Beach and I would say Medieval Times is similar but different. We were in town and wanted to do something different so we bought tickets online for this place and found a coupon code so they were cheaper than usual.
