Luxury coastal stay overlooking the Mediterranean
The concept of dining theatre in a reconstructed medieval hall emerged in Spain during the 1990s tourism boom, when coastal resorts sought attractions that could hold guests after sunset. Magic Robin Hood opened its tournament arena in 2003, anchoring a resort hotel designed as a Sherwood Forest compound.
The venue seats 450 spectators around a sand-floored arena ringed by limestone walls sculpted to resemble a 13th-century castle courtyard. Unlike static dinner shows that rely on scripted pageantry, the production here centres on athletic jousting—riders in plate armour accelerate toward each other at full gallop, lances levelled, impact audible across the hall. Falconry demonstrations punctuate the jousts, with Harris hawks and peregrine falcons hunting live prey above the tables.
The four-course menu draws from medieval Iberian court recipes: roasted suckling pig, Moorish spiced lamb, Valencia saffron rice, tapas platters served on wooden trenchers. Servers in period dress pour house wine from ceramic pitchers. No cutlery is provided—guests eat with hands, consistent with the pre-fork European dining convention that persisted until the 16th century. The absence of utensils transforms the meal into participatory theatre; children especially respond to the license to abandon table manners.
Benidorm's dinner show circuit includes several medieval-themed competitors, but Magic Robin Hood distinguishes itself through scale and production values. The arena employs twelve full-time performers—six knights, four squires, two falconers—who train year-round in mounted combat and raptor handling. The knights rotate roles nightly, ensuring variability in tournament outcomes. Horses are Andalusian crosses bred for temperament and acceleration. The falconry program maintains eight birds of prey, all captive-bred under Spanish wildlife permits.
The show runs nightly at 21:00, consistent with Spanish dining hours. Doors open at 19:00 for pre-show activities: archery ranges, medieval weapon displays, meet-the-knights photo opportunities. The tournament itself lasts 90 minutes, divided into three acts: opening joust, falconry hunt, melee combat finale. Seating is assigned by section, each supporting a color-coded knight—audience members cheer their champion, creating a competitive atmosphere. The format mirrors historical tournament customs where spectators wagered on individual combatants. Modern production elements—stage lighting, amplified sound effects, a narrator delivering plot exposition in multiple languages—overlay the period recreation without overwhelming it.

A step-by-step walkthrough of Medieval Dinner Show Benidorm tickets — what you'll see, how long each stage takes, and the details that matter.
You arrive at Magic Robin Hood's castle gates an hour before showtime, collecting your printed voucher at the armoury-themed entrance. Staff direct you to the archery range where you can test medieval crossbows and longbows under instructor supervision.
At 20:30 a herald summons guests into the great hall—you're assigned to the Blue Knight's section, third row centre, a wooden bench facing the arena.
The lights drop. Six mounted knights parade through fog and drumbeats, banners streaming. Your server places a ceramic bowl of garlic shrimp and crusty bread before you—the first course, eaten with fingers. The tournament begins: two knights charge, lances shatter on impact, splinters scatter across sand. Between jousts, a falconer releases a Harris hawk that swoops low over the tables, talons extended, snatching a lure mid-flight.
The main course arrives on a wooden trencher: half a roasted chicken, Valencia rice, grilled vegetables. You tear the meat while watching the Blue Knight unhorse his red-cloaked rival. The crowd roars. The final act escalates into sword combat on foot—choreographed but physically demanding, steel ringing against steel. The Blue Knight wins. Your section stands and cheers. The show closes at 23:00; you exit through the gift shop where children pose with costumed knights for photos.
