Historical lectures

Historical Lectures from Black Knight Historical

Black Knight Historical offers public speaking and lectures for any occasion when you want to educate adults about history!

We enjoy sharing our knowledge through our historical lectures, and our dedicated team of public speakers are always looking for new and better ways to educate and entertain. We provide top-quality services in a wide variety of formats: event commentary, guided tour, after-dinner-speech….

We have provided narrators for a wide range of educational and entertainment events, including falconry displays, banquets, tournaments, and historical festivals. We have been successfully working with historical clubs and history societies, organising lectures and historical craft demonstrations, for more than fifteen years. Our expert after-dinner speakers and Masters of Ceremony have helped to add character and flavour to quite a number of formal occasions.

You can choose the topic you would like covered, or ask the speaker to choose. If your event is to be dedicated to a particular period or person, we can provide help and advice about the programme. Depending on your requirements, our speakers can wear historical costume or formal dress. If required, we can use our own public address system.

We are based in Norfolk, and our extensive knowledge of local history makes us ideal tour guides, especially for places in and around Norwich. But we can travel to anywhere in the United Kingdom.
