The Excalibur Casino held its grand opening on June 19, 1990. Owned by MGM MIRAGE™, its initial cost was $290 million. Its architectural design, a fanciful sprawling medieval castle, provides the setting for its trademark entertainment event, the Tournament of Kings Dinner Show. This production is adapted from the King Arthur legend, which begins with a medieval-styled dinner. While dining King Arthur style, the show features jousting, dragons, acrobats, invading armies and pyrotechnics.
