"While the idea of Tournament of Kings isn’t a new one, its annual Christmas spectacular ‘Twas the Knight is worth at least one visit for locals and visitors alike. Join King Arthur and his knights in merry combat while enjoying a special holiday feast of Cornish game hen, roasted potatoes, vegetables, and a pumpkin pastry, all of which are served sans silverware. Enjoy two showtimes nightly (except Tuesdays) at Excalibur until December 25." - Jen Avison Smith

"Family Night at Tournament of Kings Tournament of Kings encompasses all the perfect ingredients for a fun family night out: Action and adventure, horses and knights, cheering and booing, and, best of all, eating dinner with your hands! This medieval-themed arena production has been around for several years, and every night, it's packed with people excited to cheer on a slew of horsemen as they joust, race their horses and battle each other with swords. Everyone is assigned a specific knight to cheer for based on the section you sit in, but the most important thing is that you don't cheer for the bad guys! Tournament of Kings is action packed and fast as performers and their horses move from one stunt to the next. Meanwhile, audience members are treated to a medieval-themed meal -- chicken, bread and other assorted sides -- but they have to eat with their fingers. After all, there was no silverware back in the good ol' days! By AFAR Traveler , AFAR Local Expert"

"Over at the Excalibur, fans can eat tomato soup and Cornish game hen with their hands during Tournament of Kings when it returns on Wednesday, July 14. The show six nights a week brings the tale of King Arthur as knights riding horses joust, ladies in waiting dance, and a fire wizard Mordred brings a dash of drama. Fun fact, since 1990, the show purchased 6.7 million game hens. The show on Monday and Friday at 6 p.m. as well as Wednesday through Thursday and Saturday through Sunday at 6 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. starts at $41.87 online." - Susan Stapleton

This was single handedly the best thing we did this trip! We sat in the "Spain" section, you could choose your country, and we had a whole tiny chicken, potatoes, etc. for dinner. And the best part?! They didn't give us any silverware! We had to eat with our hands and it was amazing! The show was also great and the crowd work was fantastic! Our entire family had a blast, and there were no complaints, just laughter and memories! The cast came out after and took pictures with people. The service was amazing! I highly recommend attending this if you're staying at the Excalibur, or even if you aren't!

Went to the box office located on the second floor to catch a dinner and a show (TOURNAMENT OF KINGS), which turned out better than expected. The spectacle was flawlessly choreographed, accentuated by a symphony of outstanding music that heightened the excitement. The vibrant color theme woven into the story added an extra layer of enchantment to the performance, captivating all our senses. The actors' infectious enthusiasm and evident passion for entertaining translated into a joyous atmosphere that enveloped the audience in a whirlwind of merriment. Laughter and applause filled the air as we were all swept away by the exhilarating tale unfolding before our eyes. The food is as expected at all these types of events and the service was very good. They provide you with a menu to purchase other beverages besides the typical water and sodas. In conclusion, this jousting extravaganza was a dazzling success that left us thoroughly entertained. It was an evening of joy, laughter, and delight that will be fondly remembered for years to come. All MGM properties parking lots are run by a 3rd party, and charge $18.00 weekdays and $24.00 on weekends. 3 hrs free parking to all residents after scanning drivers license at checkout.

Went on a whim last minute on our last day. Did not disappoint. The food was great, except the roll (it was soggy and hard). The show was entertaining. Honestly better than medieval times.

The favorite show of my kids !!!! This was epic & legendary. As mentioned by others you get assigned to a team depending where you are sitting and then you cheer and roar the other teams. My kids really loved this, it was really good. The food was also very appropriate and plentiful. Highly recommended by our family !

This was a great show. There isn't a bad seat in the house, and you really get into the feel of the show. We sat in Hungary and had the best king! He was a true champion! I'm not a fan of eating with my hands, but the food was OK. Service was great. Quick and efficient. Take the time to see this show. You'll be glad you did.

Great night out with the family. My teens loved it. Very accommodating with my daughter’s allergies. We had front row in the dragons. Purposely booked that one as we could be the bad guys. This is my 3rd time there in the past 25yrs. Was nice taking the kids there this time. The food is a little overcooked but it’s ok. In terms of cost it was the cheapest of the shows we went to and my kids thought it was a close 2nd in terms of their favourite.

After all great experience with young kids (7&11). This do get explosive/loud. Here are 3 things I wish I knew before. 1) Butter packets (from other buffets or restaurants you visit), only because I like eating my rolls with butter. I might bring salt and pepper packets too. Food was pretty bland (except for potatoes) probably for young kids’ palate. 2) Hand wipes: they give you one single wipe but after eating with your hands, it gets greasy and gross. I’m so glad I had some wipes with me. 3) Mask: it got dusty in the front row towards the end. If you’re asthmatic, you might wanna sit a couple rows behind or bring a mask to be safe. My kid didn’t have a mask, so he covered his nose/mouth with a napkin. We loved our Hungary King. You could see he actually cares about his horse throughout the show. True gentleman :-)

This show was so much more fun than my daughter and I expected! We thought the Cornish hen, roasted potatoes, corn on the cob and biscuit were pretty good. The apple pie reminded me of the ones you get at any chain fast food restaurant. The performers put on a great show and highly encouraged audience interaction. Not a bad seat in the house, very well done family friendly entertainment.
