One of the absolute must-do things in Las Vegas is catching a show! Today, we want to highly recommend a fantastic, super kid-friendly performance: the Tournament of Kings dinner show inside the Excalibur Hotel! It’s a unique experience where you get to eat your medieval meal exactly how they did back then (with your bare hands! 🤣) while watching knights in shining armor battle it out on gorgeous, real-life horses. You even get to cheer for the specific kingdom assigned to your seating section! The whole arena gets incredibly hyped and joyful. Without a doubt, this is the perfect show for the whole family to enjoy together!

Also, if you’re planning to visit other Las Vegas attractions, remember that you can use the All-Inclusive Pass for this show!

The Excalibur Hotel is one of the older properties on the Las Vegas Strip, and its entire vibe—inside and out—is a fun medieval castle theme!

The Tournament of Kings theater is located on the "Lower Level," and you can start heading in 30 minutes before the show begins.

We arrived at the Tournament of Kings arena! We brought our stroller with us, and we were able to push it right inside the theater. As soon as the staff saw our stroller, they immediately came over to kindly show us exactly where we could park it.

Everyone has a crown waiting for them at their table! Wearing our crowns to watch the show made it feel like we were part of a huge, lively party—the immersion was absolutely fantastic!

Once we were seated, our server came by to take our drink orders: Sprite, Coke, or water. These are all free, and the server will happily refill them for you throughout the night. There are also alcoholic beverages available for an extra charge; the menu is already on the table when you walk in, so you can easily browse if you're interested.

It wasn't long before our food arrived! Since the ticket includes dinner, and having read some mixed reviews online beforehand, we honestly didn't have high expectations for the food. Surprisingly, we found it pretty acceptable! The roasted chicken wasn't as dry as we imagined; it had a light herb flavor. The seasoning wasn't overpowering, which made it perfect for the kids—though eating a whole chicken by yourself can get a little heavy toward the end. If you prefer stronger flavors, you can always ask the staff for salt and pepper. The sweet potato was sweet and tasty, while the corn and bread were standard but good. True to the theme, there are NO utensils provided, so dining is very "retro"—you eat with your hands! 🤣 (We highly recommend bringing your own wet wipes!)

When we initially picked our seats, we were worried that sitting in the front row might mean our young kids would get covered in dust, since there are real horses galloping around. We were also a little concerned about safety just in case a horse got spooked. Because of this, we opted for seats a bit further back. However, we quickly realized that dust flying around wasn't really an issue at all!

Before the main event officially kicks off, a jester comes out to warm up the crowd!

We went to the show in late November, and since it was getting close to Christmas, the sets were decked out with beautiful holiday elements!

Accompanied by the gorgeous holiday backdrops, the cast sang and danced, creating a truly wonderful Christmas atmosphere. Please note that the holiday-themed performances are limited to November and December; be sure to check the official website for exact dates!

The medieval knights make their grand entrance!!! The main storyline of the show revolves around a grand tournament between these knights. The actors actively interact with the audience, getting everyone to cheer wildly for the kingdom corresponding to their seating section. It's such an incredibly immersive experience!

Besides the tournament itself, there are also plenty of great singing and dancing segments!

The performance even includes fire and pyrotechnics!

Overall, this really is a fantastic show! Thanks to the immersive medieval setting and the lively, interactive atmosphere, kids will absolutely have a blast from start to finish. Notably, this is one of the few shows in Vegas with absolutely no age limit! If you're traveling to Vegas with your family, you definitely need to check this out! If you prefer the highly popular Cirque du Soleil shows, keep in mind that O has a minimum age of 5, KÀ has a minimum age of 3, while Mystère has no age limit either!
