Tournament of Kings: One of the most fun events in The Excalibur resort is the Tournament of Kings. Not only is it a reenactment of medieval action, but it’s also one hell of a show. Actors give it their all. They don’t have it easy with everything their wearing. This spectacle is something to appreciate, given the effort the performers exert.

Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N.: The Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N. is a museum for Marvel superheroes and villains. Fans of the comics, movies, and T.V. shows get many vintage items from their favorite characters.
