Jorvik Viking Festival is up for an award! 🏆This is one beast of an event to plan and run, and it's been a joy to see all the positive feedback flood in. If you wanted to cast your vote in support, that would be amazing! 🪓https://t.co/koJXMuiGRb

Professional advice I think about a lot...In a new role, I began to introduce myself as the new *predecessors name*. My boss stopped me and said 'No, you are you, don't try to be anyone else. Do things your way.' Empowering staff from day one. 4 years on and still helps me.

Working at the @Royal_Armouries has been such a joyful adventure thanks to the amazing people who keep delivering outstanding education experiences and unbelievable events. But the time has come for me to sail to the next chapter on my metaphoric longboat... 🗡🪓🛡🐎

Tomorrow is the last day of the @Royal_Armouries Elizabethan Joust. Nemo here is a bit of an unsung hero. He guards the stables during shows and is of course ready to joust if any horse should need a rest! 🐎🛡🗡

[Royal Armouries @Royal_Armouries]

Times of horse shows for Friday 26th August.

We're getting everything ready for our Joust Tournament taking place over the bank holiday so our horse shows will be at 11am and 2pm today.

You can take the girl out of the Armouries but the girl will still joust with pool noodles on holiday!

First experience of Knaresborough and the #bedrace was great! It might have to be an annual event!
