500-year-old Hampton Court Palace is linked to Kingston town centre via Hampton Court Road which runs between Bushy and Home Parks.
The grand buildings were used by the Tudor court during the time of Henry VIII and jousting took place as part of Royal events and celebrations.
Re-enactments of the medieval sport returned to the Palace over 400 years later, in 2009, and have taken place since to mark special occasions such as the palace's 500th anniversary.
The Palace also hosts an annual music festival which will return in June 2022.
