- Опубликовано: 3 май 2024
- 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.

Very cool, though I'd have happily traded the scoreboard reading for some full speed clips with audio rather than commentary
Welcome to the competitors from France and from Italy.
Well this is a criminally underviewed video. Appreciate the effort that clearly went into it!
These are Richard and India, keepers of spiky stuff at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic items made for poking from throughout history.
The horses thundering by was unforgettable at my visit
Well done to everyone involved that was fantastic, all of you are true knights at heart
Love this sports coverage style! (also thank you Andy for how much you've taught me on my past visits to the Armouries)
I witnessed that hit at
I've no idea why the thought popped in to my head but I saw the first few seconds of the video - & thought of 'Brave Sir Robin' from Monty Python's Holy Grail. 😀
Absolutely brilliant round up of what was an amazing tournament!!! 👏👏👏👏
Falconry next ?
THANKS!
Did not know anything about it was it advertised anywhere glad to see it though
Awesome video thank you
That looks like an amazing event. Melee next time?
We need to petition to have this televised or added to the Olympics :P
Super interesting to see the decorations on the armor, stuff you probably wouldn't have when fighting on foot.
this is so awesome
Im sad my local renfest doesnt do jousting anymore becasue someone broke the safety rules at a tournament and got hurt. At my renfest no one is supposed to be within 3 feet of the tounament fence and someone went right up to it and got hit by a piece of a shattered lance and they sued and despite the clear signs and rules saying dont be near fence so they just pass by each other on horses now and dismount and just do some choreographed fight for a min. Was very underwhelming.
Could we not have just had the actual jousing tournament at real speed and THEN the rundown
