Medieval Easter: International Jousting Tournament highlights

Over Easter weekend (29 March to 1 April 2024), the Royal Armouries hosted the Medieval Easter International Jousting Tournament. Teams from the United Kingdom, France and Italy battled it out to win some of the most coveted prizes in the jousting world today.

Over the weekend, the knights were competing as individuals for the Queen's Jubilee Horn, presented to the Royal Armouries in 2002, by the late Queen Elizabeth II; and as national teams for the Sword of Honour.

Relive all of the action from a weekend filled with thundering hooves, shattering lances and the toughest competitors on horseback with our highlights programme.
