Competing at the highest level in the land, The Boars, the Loxwood Joust’s honorable and brave Jousting team, are hosting a new Jousting League on the 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th, 17th and 18th August in the Loxwood Meadows.

Competing against the spectacular Londinium Lions, the new Boars team is expected to be hopelessly outclassed by the biggest and most highly skilled team from the capital. However, never, ever deterred, even by fire beacons… Sir Duncan, Captain of The Boars, has issued a rallying cry! “Fill the Loxwood Meadows and wear The Boars striking colours. Cheer us on, sing our songs and design a shield to show your fealty and pride. Help us ride to victory on a wave of your support, as we strive for honour and glory for our Queen.”

Never has the annual Loxwood Joust celebrations been so eagerly anticipated. In recognition of this momentous occasion, The Queen has declared that she will reside in a fresh Royal Quarter, so as to welcome and speak with all of Loxwood’s citizens. And, three new interactive Puzzle Trail stories shall be weaving their way across the Kingdom. At key locations guests should ask the right questions, chat to the characters and discover the information to lead them on to the next stage of the trail. Gain all three trail medals and bend your knee, make a vow to the Queen herself, and be bestowed with your title in the Kingdom of Loxwood.

But if murder mystery is more your thing, become immersed in a real challenge. The Loxwood guards need some help to solve a mystery too! A dedicated trail around the Kingdom of Loxwood with posters to enlist folks help just deepen the intrigue. But, those citizens who can solve the murder, can proudly claim their award from the grateful Queen.
