Excalibur Arena | Tournament of Kings Tickets – Best Seats & Value Guide

Expert Tips for Choosing the Best Tournament of Kings Seats

The Excalibur Arena's unique theater-in-the-round setup means every seat offers a different perspective of the jousting action. Below I've analyzed all available sections and rows to help you find the perfect balance of view quality and ticket value for this legendary dinner show experience.

Best Value Tickets ($135-$138)

• HUNGARY Row C ($135): Front-center view of the Hungarian knight's entrance with great jousting sightlines. Slight elevation helps see over the action.
• NORWAY Row A ($135): Front row for Viking section - excellent proximity to Norway knight's performances and banquet servers.
• FRANCE Row B ($135): Second row in this popular section means you'll catch all the French knight's romantic flair without premium pricing.
• IRELAND Row A ($135): Prime view of Celtic battle sequences with easy access to aisle for character interactions.

Sweet Spot Seats ($138-$144)

• IRELAND Row B ($138): Slightly elevated view maintains intimacy while providing better overall perspective of the arena.
• FRANCE Row C ($138): Perfect middle-ground - can see all tournament action clearly while still feeling immersed in the France section's energy.
• SPAIN Row PCE ($140): Partial center view at a discount - you'll miss some peripheral action but get great views of the main jousting lanes.
• HUNGARY Row E ($144): Back row of this section means you can stand during exciting moments without blocking others' views.

Higher Tier Options ($145-$160)

• DRAGON Row A ($145): Front row for the villain's section - thrilling up-close views of the dark knight's dramatic entrances.
• ROMANIA Row A ($145): Excellent sightlines to the throne and main battle arena, though slightly more expensive than comparable sections.
• SPAIN Row A ($150): Premium positioning for watching the matador-style combat sequences.
• DRAGON Row E ($156): Elevated view reveals hidden details of the dragon knight's special effects.

View Differences by Section

• Front Rows (A-B): Feel the horses thunder by but may require more head movement to follow all action
• Middle Rows (C-D): Ideal balance - can see entire arena while still feeling close to "your" knight
• Back Rows (E): Best for taking in the full spectacle though slightly removed from section-specific interactions
• DRAGON Section: Faces the villain's gate - dramatic but misses some heroic knight entrances
• ROMA/SPAIN Sections: Central positioning provides the most balanced views of all tournament events

Premium/Last-Minute Options ($173+)

• ROMANIA Row E ($173): Only recommended if you value easy exit access over perfect views
• SPAIN Row D ($187): Truly VIP treatment with dedicated server attention
• Front Row Any Section ($191+): Only worth the premium if meeting "your" knight is a priority

Expert Recommendation

For first-time visitors, the FRANCE Row B or IRELAND Row A at $135 offer the best combination of immersive theming and great views. Repeat guests should try DRAGON Row C ($146) for a completely different perspective on the show's dramatic elements.

Special Notes

• All seats include the same hearty medieval feast - no VIP food upgrades
• Rows A-C generally get more character interaction during the banquet portions
• DRAGON section tends to be louder/more energetic - great for families
• ROMA/SPAIN sections are slightly more refined if bringing elderly guests
