Our Jousting History
The Nottingham Jousting Association (now the Knights of Nottingham) came into being by accident. In 1970, the City of Nottingham held a large festival and because the city has always been closely connected to Robin Hood, it was decided that the festival should have a medieval theme.
The daily highlight all week was to be a jousting tournament. At this time, there were no professional jousting troops in England, and a group of stunt men were asked to arrange the jousting sequences. The jousting tournament at Nottingham caught the imagination of festival organisers throughout England, and Mr. Humphrey was approached to stage other jousting tournaments. And so, the Nottingham Jousting Association was formed and has grown from there. From performing for royalty, putting on shows all over Europe and achieving the status of twice world champions when competing against the rest of the world in Colorado there isn't much we haven't done!
