Join Us
Join us for the U.K.’s most spectacular medieval (mediaevel) festival is only for two weekends each year so book now or you’ll have to wait 12 months for your next opportunity!
This amazing extravaganza is held in the picturesque woodlands of West Sussex and features full-contact jousting, along with other daring displays of weaponry, including archery, muskets, and cannon fire as armored knights and their retainers prepare to meet in great numbers for the melee on the thunderous battlefield, granting us many unique photographic opportunities.

You will also be able to “wander the Living History Village, situated in the Medieval Meadow, where inhabitants live and work exactly as they would have in the middle ages. Peruse their traditional wares in the Medieval Marketplace, where traders and hawkers vie for your attention and wandering minstrels, dance troupes, and a court jester entertain the crowds throughout the day.” So a number of interesting and unusual portrait possibilities are available.
Almost 50 re-enactment groups take part in Loxwood Joust each year so it is on a scale unlike other medieval events.
We’ve recently sent an advance party to scout Loxwood for the best photographic positions and have devised battle tactics to enable you to capture some amazing shots!
Loxwood Joust starts to wind down around 5-5.30pm, so we expect to leave the event soon after and arrive back in central London around 6.30-7pm.

Guide

Dion Hitchcock
Dion is an expat Australian based in London, United Kingdom. A prodigious traveller, after visiting 40+ countries he decided it was high time to learn about photography so he could better document his travels and quickly caught “the bug”. He became involved in several camera clubs assisting them running workshops and now runs his own, including in the UK, Iceland, and his home country of Australia. A qualified pharmacist, he’s now swapped helping patients and teaching pharmacy students for helping clients with both the technical aspects and artistic side of photography. Although an unconventional transition, he sees this as a natural progression as both of his parents are artists who instilled in him an appreciation of the beauty of the wondrous world around us.
