Tournament of Kings puts dinner alongside knights, horses and an arena adventure at Excalibur. Compare meal-inclusive admission carefully, arrange dietary requests before arrival, and choose seats for watching action across the arena.
Compare the verified ticket sources, then choose the date and seats that fit your plans.
Tournament of Kings is a live dinner show built around King Arthur’s world. Knights and horses bring the tournament into an arena, with stunt action and theatrical effects accompanying the meal. Eating with your hands is part of the medieval theme.
Choose it when dinner and shared spectacle are both part of the appeal. It can give a family one clear centerpiece for the evening instead of a restaurant reservation followed by a separate theater journey. The meal and performance run together, so arrive ready for both rather than treating dinner as something that happens after the show.
The practical decisions are unusually important here: whether each guest needs a seat and meal, whether the menu works for the group, and whether the horses, dust and effects suit everyone. Settle those questions before shopping purely by price.
Decide on meals and seats together, arrange dietary needs ahead of time, and get to the correct Excalibur arena.
Ticket choices, timing and practical details for your visit.
You eat while the tournament unfolds, rather than completing a restaurant dinner before the curtain rises. Plan to be seated and ready at the start so you can follow the action without sorting out meal questions. A light snack earlier may work better for children than either a full dinner immediately beforehand or arriving extremely hungry.
Standard meal-inclusive tickets and dinnerless admission are different offers. Dinnerless tickets for the late show are available through the Excalibur box office rather than online. A VIP add-on also requires a separate show ticket. When comparing prices, make sure each offer covers the same admission and food instead of treating every listing as an equivalent seat.
The standard menu includes roasted chicken, potatoes, corn, a roll and an apple dessert. Dietary and children’s-meal requests must be made at least four hours ahead and can be requested within 90 days of the show. Contact 702-597-7477 or ticketing_groups@excalibur.com, explain the requirement and confirm what can be provided. Do not assume an alternative meal can be arranged at your table.
Children three and under may share an adult’s lap and meal without a separate ticket. Ages four and older require paid admission and receive their own seat and dinner. Think through the comfort of eating while holding a child before choosing the lap option. The cheapest arrangement is useful only if it works for both people throughout the experience.
The performance takes place around an enclosed dirt arena with horses, smoke, fog, strobes and pyrotechnics. Consider the whole environment when deciding whether it suits your party, especially for guests sensitive to horses or dust. Choosing a seat farther from the arena does not remove those elements from the building.
From the Excalibur lobby, follow the box-office route down to the lower level, then toward Dairy Queen and the arena. Other shows use the upstairs Thunderland Showroom, so the theater name matters. Aim to arrive around half an hour early as a planning buffer. Meals are not served to guests arriving 30 minutes or more after the start.
For a family or group, resolve the number of seats and meals together before splitting purchases. Accessible seating can be booked online or by calling 702-597-7600. Describe the route, companion needs and any meal accommodations in the same planning process. Leave backpacks and luggage at the hotel, since they cannot enter the showroom.
Think of your seat as both a dining place and a view of an arena. Balance proximity with the ability to follow action moving across the space.
Choose a nearby position if seeing the horses and stunt action at shorter range is the priority. Consider the dirt-arena environment and everyone’s comfort before paying for proximity.
Compare locations with more distance if you prefer taking in movement across the arena. Check the section and row on the actual seating map, and keep the party together so the meal and show are shared.
Resolve lap attendance, individual meals and accessible spaces first. Confirm companion placement and the route before purchasing. An upgrade should follow those needs rather than force the group into an unsuitable arrangement.
Meal-inclusive admission does. Dinnerless tickets and the separately sold VIP add-on are different products, so check the exact offer.
