Went with my 4 year old son. He was captivated through the whole performance. Food was also very good and whole evening was very well organised. Exceeded my expectations. Only negative was that some bits were a bit noisey (firing guns) more

This would be really worth going to if: 1) You could make out what they were saying or singing. The sound mix was dreadful. Sounded really muffled although still loud so we really had no idea what was going on. 2) The food could be better and they could manage better portion control, although the soup was very nice. 3)... more

This show was fantastic when we visited Malta last year. We bought tickets for family members who have unfortunatley had to postpone their holiday. I am therefore selling tickets for two people for the 21st May 2009 on ebay at a starting price of £10. The tickets cost around £80 and don't forget you get a three course meal and... more

If you enjoy not being able to hear because of terrible accoustics, then this show is for you. There are lots of costumed people on horses and lots of woman who can't really dance, dancing around---much of it makes no sense because it is impossible to hear. The sound is garbled but very loud. The food is awful. Try drinking... more

My partner and I went to see this show on Christmas day. As it was Christmas day, I think that we got the B team, performance wise, but what else would you expect? Some people seemed disappointed that the show wasn't a historical documentary, but it was never advertised as such. The show is a musical 'interpretation' of the history... more

An interesting and lively show with lovely costumes all about some of the Maltese history with a bit of a love story too - yes they did get married in the end - Aw. The seating was tiered and set so that everyone can see as I normally spend most of my time in other shows trying to see through... more

On my visit to Malta in January 2008 i had the chance to see the show Knights Spectacular 1565 which is well worth it. For 48 Euro we got transport from our hotel to the venue and back to our hotel, we got a lovely 3 course meal with all the wine we could drink as well as a 2... more

Quite a spectacular show but £40 is a lot for 100 mins. There is everything that is advertised. Drinks do NOT include beer and it is difficult to get anyone to refill your wine or soft drinks. No choice of food - not sure what happens if you are vegetarian. Th 3 course snack was adequate. Yes, it is unique... more

It is a shame that locals seem to think that this show is not as they expected! I went with my family to this show and we were stunned!! We are not really interested to check the historical facts or after a re enactment show. The arena is nice to see too, however, the show, the costumes and armour, the... more

very poor

I am Maltese and was curious to see what this show was all about since I am doing a degree in Tourism Studies at the university of Malta. We were very disappointed with the show and had an inkling it would turn out the way it did after seeing the quality of their promotional material. Although the show is historically... more
