Events include medieval jousting, falconry, sword fights and more. Visitors eat with their hands and are encouraged to be loud and supportive of their knight.

Not good for the appetite but very interesting nonetheless.

Orange County Piers are always a center for entertainment, shopping and great restaurants. Two of Orange Counties most happening piers are Huntington Pier and Newport Pier.
- Huntington Pier has a well-developed Main Street that leads up to the pier with a multitude of touristy shops and restaurants. Along the 'Strand' (beach bike path) are bike rental and concession stands. At the base of the pier is Duke's Restaurant or walk to the end of the pier for a great burger and shake at Ruby's Diner.
