Excalibur Arena | Tournament of Kings Seating Guide – Best Views & Value

Expert Recommendations for Tournament of Kings Tickets at Excalibur

The Excalibur Arena's unique theater-in-the-round setup for Tournament of Kings offers immersive medieval action from all angles. Below are my expert picks for the best value seats, premium sections, and hidden gems based on current availability and pricing.

Best Value Tickets ($115-$126)

• NORW Row A ($115): Front row of Norway section with excellent sightlines to the central jousting area. Best price for front-section seating.
• IREL Row A ($115): Equivalent front-row value in the Ireland section - knights frequently interact with this side.
• FRAN Row B ($115): Second row France seating at front-row prices. Minimal view difference from Row A.
• HUNG Row C ($115): Hungary section's third row still provides clear views of the main battle sequences.

Sweet Spot (Good Availability & Price)

• SPAI Row PCE ($122): Special "Prince/Princess" seating with slightly elevated views in Spain section. Only 3 available.
• DRAG Row A ($122): Dragon section front row - ideal for families wanting to be near the fire-breathing effects.
• ROMA Row A ($122): Romania front row offers great value with frequent knight processions nearby.
• FRAN Row C ($126): France third row has good availability and sightlines over the first two rows.

Higher Tier Options (Not the best deals)

• SPAIN Row A ($128+): Premium pricing but excellent center-stage views of the royal court scenes.
• DRAGON Row A ($131): Dragon section's premium front row with best views of pyrotechnics.
• AUSTRIA Rows B-D ($131-$134): Mid-section seating with comfortable elevation but priced at premium levels.

Premium/Last-Minute Picks

• ROMANIA Row E ($173): Elevated rear seating with panoramic views - ideal for photographers.
• SPAIN Row D ($187): Most expensive regular seats with perfect center alignment for the final battle.
• IRELAND Row C ($153): Limited-availability side section with unique vantage points.

View Differences by Section

• Front Rows (A-C): Feel the horses' hooves thunder by but may require some neck craning during aerial acts.
• Middle Rows (D-E): Better overall perspective of the full arena but further from the action.
• DRAGON Sections: Best for special effects but can get warm from pyrotechnics.
• ROMA/SPAI Sections: Prime views of the royal throne and main storyline sequences.

Pro Tips

• The show involves audience participation - front row seats have highest chance of being selected.
• Arrive 30+ minutes early for best seat selection within your section (general admission by row).
• Avoid sitting directly behind light/sound booths in rear sections.
• Dining tables are arranged by section - FRAN and IREL have the most efficient server access.

Current Best Availability

As of now, the NORW Row A ($115) and IREL Row A ($115) offer the best combination of price, view quality and available quantity (14 tickets each). For groups, FRAN Row B has excellent availability at $115/ticket.
