The Horses of Medieval Times Welcome Guests into Their Home While most of the royal subjects at Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament stand on their own two feet, the most celebrated members of the kingdom are best known for their trot, gallop and canter. For the first time in history, Medieval Times at Sugarloaf is offering a VIP Stable Tour, allowing guests to take a behind-the-scenes look at the luxurious life of the king’s horses. When they are not performing gravity-defying jumps and stylish walks to delight castle guests, the horses of Medieval Times receive nothing less than the royal treatment. The fully-enclosed Medieval Times castle in North Atlanta is home to the 23 equine beauties that star in the legendary dinner show. Tour participants are entertained post-show with a brief presentation on the celebration of the horse, including basic history on the unique bloodline of Medieval Times’ famed Andalusians and some lighthearted trivia that is suitable for all ages. Following, the participants are escorted through “Staff Only” doors into the stables. Cast members, stable hands and even the Master Horse Trainer are bustling to complete after-show duties, allowing guests an up-close and personal glimpse into the castle’s inner-workings. Guests are able to speak one-on-one with cast members, including the knights of the realm, who join tour participants in the stables to answer questions, pose for photos and sign autographs. The tour is the only portion of the Medieval Times experience where cast members will communicate with guests as themselves, rather than as the characters that they portray, in order to create a unique, sincere interaction with VIP guests. Availability is limited for the VIP Stable Tour. Reservations may be made at the castle before or during the show. The VIP Stable Tour is only 10 dollars in addition to admission and includes a commemorative backstage pass. The VIP Stable Tour is not currently offered during matinees, but is available at evening shows immediately. For current show dates and times, visit MedievalTimes.com or call 1-888-WE-JOUST (888-935-6878). Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament is located at 5900 Sugarloaf Parkway in Lawrenceville.
