Imagine a totally electrifying, full day out at Britain's Ultimate Castle.
Where you can immerse yourself in a thousand years of jaw-dropping history – come rain or shine. Where ancient myths and spell-binding tales will set your imagination alight and your hair on end. Where princesses are pampered and maidens are wooed.
Experience the heat of battle at such close quarters you'll almost smell the fear, as winners become true heroes and losers are confined to dark, dank dungeons to be forgotten for eternity.
It could only be Warwick Castle.
July
Summer at Warwick Castle
July 24th 2010 - September 5th 2010Warwick Castle is inviting you to saddle up and ride over to Britain’s Ultimate Castle to experience an adventure for all the family to enjoy.
The famous Jousting Knights return to the Castle grounds from 24th July – 5th Sept but this time, they are not alone. The rebel Barbarians are planning to invade the Castle and challenge the valiant Warwick warriors to the ultimate fight.
The ultimate test is on offer for any budding knights of the realm, with the new Sword in the Stone attraction.
All-powerful wizard, Merlin is looking for the next Knight of the Roundtable and young hopefuls are invited to pit their wits and strength to try and extract the troublesome sword from the enchanted stone. But will anyone break the spell and be appointed honorary Knight of Warwick Castle?
Visitors can catch the mediaeval bowman’s awe-inspiring archery display, watch the return of Nikita the sea eagle in the Castle’s stunning Flight of the Eagles show and meet the resident Falconer and the rest of his birds of prey.
To top it all off, the Castle Dungeon is open and ready to receive fresh victims. The attraction recreates some of the darkest chapters in the Castle’s history
On top of all of that, guests will also be able to enjoy the thrills and spills of “Secrets and Scandals” – The Royal Weekend Party, hosted by the beautiful Daisy of Warwick, and play royal dress-up with their very own princesses and handmaidens in tow, in the enchanting Princess Tower.
