Description

Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament Chicago is more than the nation’s #1 longest-running dinner attraction—it is an immersive journey into the past, where chivalry, courage, and honor come to life through authentic pageantry and thrilling tournament action.

While enjoying a hearty four-course medieval-style feast (served without silverware), guests watch six brave knights compete in skillful games atop magnificent Andalusian stallions. Lances clash against steel shields, swords spark in combat, and a champion is crowned amid cheers from the crowd.

The experience takes place nightly inside a fully enclosed, authentic European-style castle.

The Feast:
The menu at Medieval Times Chicago consists of garlic bread, tomato bisque soup, roasted chicken, sweet-buttered corn, herb-basted potatoes, the dessert of the Castle, coffee, and two rounds of select beverages. A vegetarian meal is available upon request.

Vegetarian/Vegan/Gluten-Free Meals:
The vegan meal includes a generous serving of hummus with carrot and celery sticks, a main course featuring three-bean stew with fire-roasted tomato and brown rice, and a choice of fresh fruit or Italian ice for dessert.

The vegetarian option includes all of these vegan dishes along with a side of warm pita bread.

Gluten-free meals available upon request include tomato bisque soup, hummus, carrot, and celery sticks, as well as the main course of roasted chicken, sweet-buttered corn, and herb-basted potato. You receive your choice of fresh fruit or Italian ice for dessert.

In addition, cocktail servers will be making the rounds and are happy to deliver a variety of spirits from the bar that you request for an additional fee.

Allergy/Strobe Warning: Medieval Times is a live horse show in an enclosed arena. Persons with respiratory conditions, allergies, or asthma attend at their own risk. Medieval Times uses stroboscopic and pyrotechnic effects.

"Fun family experience"

Reviewed December 29, 2025

Super fun family experience! The dancing horses and the battles were our favorite. The show entertained all of our children - ages 16 down to 7. The meal was okay (be prepared to eat with your hands). The portion size was huge! We ended up with 3 full to-go boxes. The service was friendly and everyone stayed in character throughout the entire 2 hours. The bathrooms could have been cleaner as well as the floors around the table area however it’s dark throughout the entire performance so it’s hard to tell.

"Fun for literally all ages"

Reviewed December 27, 2025

We LOVED this experience! It was great for all ages. We were a group of 11 ages 2 - 71, and all of us had fun. I'll admit I get way more into it then I probably should, but got us all cheering. We were Red and Yellow, and although our knight didn't win 😞 we still had a great time. My nieces were gifted carnations and my daughter got queen of the tournament. The show itself is amazing, but the food speaks for itself. It may be a tad messy but the soup and chicken and corn... so many things tasted so good! They even give you boxes to take the extra home. At the end you can meet your knight and the kids had a blast. Since we're local we will be going back... this time hopefully for victory!

"Fun time"

Reviewed December 07, 2025

We have been a few times, knew what to expect. However, this time the sound was bad. So loud couldn't understand all of the story. Not sure if it was the volumn or sound system that made it hard to understand. Also the nice thrones and seats that you used to be able to take pictures in have no been converted to a "knighting" experience that costs $$. Do your knighting but leave something that families can do with no cost. Those pics were nice memories, no you have to pay for it, along with the regular photos and now "knighting" pics. The framed pics are now sold AT dinner, very difficult to hear the sales person and see the pics in the dark. I wasn't chancing it on a bad pic. Food was great as usual though! Soup and eclaires especially!!

"Great family outing!"

Reviewed October 22, 2025

I took my daughter and Grandaughter for a night out and we had a great time! All the staff were courteous and accommodating. I had the Vegetarian option (main course a stew) and it was very good. Unfortunately they do not have a children’s menu, so my grand daughter didn’t eat much. We went to the 4pm show and for a matinee, it was wonderful. My grand daughter talked about it for days afterwards.

Frequently Asked Questions about Medieval Times Dinner and Tournament Illinois

Where is Medieval Times in Chicago?

Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament is located at 2001 N Roselle Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60195. Nestled in the city of Schaumburg, the Illinois Castle is hard to miss. Conveniently located off I90, the Castle is a straight and easy drive from downtown Chicago.

What is Medieval Times?

Medieval Times offers a boisterous, family-friendly experience inspired by an 11th-century feast and tournament. You’ll be served a 4-course banquet as you cheer for one of six knights competing in the joust and other tests of skill.

What should be expected at a Medieval Times Chicago performance?

Prepare for 2 hours of adventure set in Medieval Spain. Highly trained knights will joust and show off their swordsmanship in hand-to-hand combat, along with displays of horsemanship and majestic falconry.

How early should I arrive at Medieval Times?

The Castle doors will open 60 minutes prior to the showtime printed on your tickets. Many shows sell out, so it takes time to get everyone in efficiently and safely. Please Note: During the tournament, you will be seated only with guests booked under the same reservation. Groups booked under different reservations will be seated 1 seat between each group to maintain social distancing.

Is the show appropriate for all ages?

It is! Children under the age of 3 are admitted free as long as they sit on adults’ laps and eat from their plate. If you prefer the child to have his or her own seat and meal then the child rate would apply.

Is it true that we must eat with our hands?

Absolutely! Eating utensils were not used in the 11th century and the Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament takes you back! Please note: disposable silverware is available upon request.
