Olympic Games Joust

The Knights of the Damned jousting stunt team will be presenting their exciting "Olympic Games Joust' at Galtres Festival on Saturday 25 August 2012.

The spectacular medieval jousting tournament will be a star attraction at Galtres Festival near York, which has a Knights and Dragons theme this year. Joining the jousters will be a medieval village, falconry, a Knight School, witches and wizardry, and culminating in a spectacular Dragon Ball on the Sunday Night which includes a Chinese Dragon Dance.

Led by award-winning movie stuntman Justin Pearson, the jousting display boasts high speed  Olympic-themed action, skilful mounted knights, and a fantastic colourful spectacle for all the family. It's free to Galtres ticket holders.

The show includes spectacular action, galloping horses, stunts, falls, awesome fire weapons, professional commentary and music that will leave you truly breathless.
