Are you a brave Knight or a beautiful Princess?

Are you looking for something fun to do with the kids during the summer holiday? Why not send them back to school….at Leeds Castle

Visit Leeds Castle from the 24 to the 26 august and enrol your brave knight’s and beautiful princesses at our very own ‘knight and princess school’.

Children aged 2 to 10 years old can dress up in chainmail and helmets in the armour zone and try out their combat skills in a foam sword battle.

Sword fighting lessons using wooden training swords and real medieval techniques will be available, plus an interactive mini warrior battle show for the whole family which will re-enact the battle of Agincourt with the children cast as English archers.

The princess show will teach the etiquette needed to meet a prince, with the opportunity to try on beautiful dresses and learn a medieval courtly dance.

Your key to the castle ticket is valid for the knight and princess school event. Tickets cost £21 for adults; £18.50 for seniors and visitors with disabilities (carer goes free); £13.50 for children (under 4’s free). Tickets are valid for 12 months so you can pay once and visit all year round.
