What the impression is made of

  • Royal Banquet or Noble Banquet programme (or a combination of both)
  • Period musicians and actors playing servants and courtiers
  • Dance performance matching the chosen era
  • Knightly or noble duel demonstration
  • Option to book only part of the programme to fit your script
  • Performers who interact with guests throughout the evening
  • Consultation on the historical cuisine menu
  • Fire spectacle finale (within the Royal Banquet programme)

An evening where every dish and every dance recreates the grandeur of a castle.


Two banquets, different down to the last detail

For a gala evening we offer two distinct, independently built programmes. The Royal Banquet recreates the grandeur of a medieval castle: dishes researched from historical sources, period musicians and actors playing court servants, dancers demonstrating noble etiquette, a knightly combat performance, and the evening closes with a fire spectacle in the castle courtyard.

The Noble Banquet carries guests into the 17th-century Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth – with the dining traditions of that era, Baroque-costume dance performances, sword-duel demonstrations, a hussar cavalry display and musket-fire scenes recalling the military power of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania.

Both programmes are built as one continuous script rather than a set of unconnected acts – every element is timed to fit the evening's overall arc and the formal part of your event.

A castle or a hotel hall — we adapt to both

While the programmes create the strongest impression in a castle or manor, we adapt them equally well to modern hotels, conference centres or office venues, filling the space with the right décor and historical content.

You don't need to book the full programme: choose only the dance segment, only the knightly or noble duels, or any combination that fits your evening's script. We fit the programme to your planned running time and formal agenda.

Active performances are scheduled between courses or speeches, and background music together with a guard presence maintains the atmosphere without interrupting your guests' conversation or the formal proceedings.

Performers who never step out of character

The menu is prepared together with chefs who specialise in historical culinary heritage – dishes match the chosen era while remaining genuinely enjoyable to a modern palate.

Our performers stay in character all evening: they greet arriving guests, pose for photos, and talk about their costumes and equipment. It isn't a stage-only act but part of the evening itself, where your guests become witnesses to the history rather than just an audience for it.

Since 2004 we have staged historical evenings for well-known Lithuanian companies and institutions hosting distinguished guests – including international partners and official delegations for whom a carefully considered, representative setting matters.


The practical side — ours to handle

Team

Performers, equipment and props arrive as one team.

The answers people need most

Can these programmes be held in any venue?

Yes, although the strongest effect comes in a castle or manor. For modern spaces – hotels, conference halls or offices – we adapt the programme with additional décor and historical content so the atmosphere stays authentic regardless of the building.

Is the food authentic to the period?

Yes. We work with chefs who specialise in historical culinary heritage, so the menu follows the traditions of the chosen era for both the Royal and the Noble Banquet. Dishes stay historically accurate while remaining enjoyable to a modern palate.

Can we choose only part of the programme, such as just the dancing or just the duels?

Yes, absolutely. We shape the programme around your evening's script, running time and formal part – you can book only the dance segment, only the knightly or noble duels, or any combination of elements from both banquets.

Will the performances interrupt guests at the table?

No, we schedule active performances to happen between courses or speeches, not during them. Background music and a guard presence in the hall build atmosphere without interrupting official conversations or presentations.

Do the performers interact with guests, or only perform on stage?

Yes, our knights, nobles and dancers stay in character throughout the evening – they greet arriving guests, pose for photos together, and talk about their costumes and equipment. This creates an immersive experience rather than a purely stage-bound show.

It was a top-tier reception. Our foreign partners were captivated by the way Lithuanian history was presented - knightly duels and a dinner in a castle created an atmosphere they had never experienced anywhere else. The professionalism showed in every detail.
