Medieval Times Lazise: The Medieval Tournament with Dinner on Lake Garda

Located within the CanevaWorld Resort in Lazise, Medieval Times is Italy's most famous medieval-themed dinner show. It is not a simple dinner, but a totally immersive experience that transports visitors back in time to the heart of a medieval castle. Between horse charges, duels to the death and a banquet served without cutlery, Medieval Times is the ideal choice for a different kind of evening with family or friends.

The Show: Knights, Honour and Courage

The heart of the experience is the tournament for the wedding of the princess. Spectators are divided into four sectors, each supporting a different knight, identified by the colours of the lineage:

• Blue Knight
• Green Knight
• Red Knight
• Yellow Knight

During the show, the professional riders challenge each other in tests of skill on horseback, archery competitions and, of course, in the grand finale: hand-to-hand combat with swords, axes and maces. The choreography is extremely well-choreographed, with special effects, epic music and audience participation making the atmosphere electrifying.

The Banquet: A Dinner “without Cutlery”

Faithfully following the customs of the time, dinner at Medieval Times is served strictly without cutlery. This is something the children really enjoy and makes the experience informal and convivial.

The typical set menu includes:

• A tasty tomato soup served in an earthenware bowl.
• A whole roast chicken with potatoes.
• A warm focaccia.
• Sweet finale.
• Drinks included (beer, water or soft drinks) served in mugs and refills.

(Vegetarian or coeliac options are available on request when booking).
