Introducing Excalibur’s Trials powered by .online! During the May Ball, guests can explore the set and lore of Le Chevalier du Miroir to answer questions set by Excalibur. Answering a question correctly unlocks a vote for either Arthur or Morgana, and the winning claimant will be coronated at 3am on the Spire Stage!

To answer the questions, click on the sword icons on the map. While you don’t need to be in the specific area of the ball to click on the icon, the question will pertain to the set or lore of each region and encourages exploring the ball fully. Be careful, though, as you only get one attempt at each question!

Decide the rightful heir to Camelot’s throne and forever make your mark on the 2026 Gonville & Caius May Ball!

The BlueProof interactive programme is now online! You can begin looking through everything the ball has to offer and start planning your own ideal routes. Access the programme at: https://caiusball.blueproof.online/welcome
