The Lost Lands Ball & King’s Games
Many years ago, there lived a King. In a land lost to time, the legend of his kingdom, and his sword, lives on. Upon the wild coasts of North Cornwall, surrounded by jagged cliffs and sea mist, Tintagel village rises out of the ocean to give birth to this legend. For fans of BBC Merlin, Throne of Glass, Dungeons & Dragons, and anyone who wants to let out their inner Knight of Valour, this one’s for you.
Event Itinerary –
This is a full day event, starting from around 11:00 and finishing at 23:00 – with a break in between for you to freshen up and change from battle outfits into your evening regalia. The day will commence with…
THE KING’S GAMES
Experience life as a warrior. Learn how to throw an axe with deathly precision, hit the bullseye every time with your arrow, and hold your own in a sword fight.
Inspired by ancient tournaments, this will give you the chance to prove yourself as a protector of the realm. Prepare and train for battle like your favourite fictional warrior, all in a place steeped in beauty and endless myth.
A banquet style lunch will keep you fuelled throughout the day. If you prefer a quieter experience, there’s the chance to bask in the coastal summer sun, shop for trinkets with our vendors and get to know everyone before the Ball.
THE LOST LANDS BALL
After a day defending the Kingdom, enjoy an evening of celebration and revelry. Dance through the night to live music performed by our folk trio and learn traditional group dances with other guests. Walk the halls and experience life at a royal ball or delve into the mystery of the Arthurian legend with our medieval reenactors.
At sunset, everyone will gather back on the battlefield to witness characters like Arthur and the Dark Knight battle for the throne with flaming swords. After this thrilling performance, the winner of the Ball’s costume contest will be crowned and awarded their royal prize.
Everyone is welcome. Whether you attend alone, with friends or someone special, it’s a chance to meet fellow medieval, fantasy and Arthurian enthusiasts in a beautiful setting, all whilst wearing finery fit for King Arthur himself. If you’ve always dreamed of dressing up and being whisked away to a fantasy ball, this is your chance!
