Our Jousting History
The Nottingham Jousting Association (now the Knights of Nottingham) actually 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 of the show was to be a Jousting tournament however at that time there were no professional Jousting troupes in England. A local riding school was contacted and a group of local lads were asked to arrange the Jousting sequences. The Jousting tournament at Nottingham caught the imagination of festival organisers throughout England and the Nottingham Jousting Association was formed!
