To gain entry as a lady of the gallery, a spectator, or a herald  
simply present yourself at the tournament and join in the days  
festivities.

Many will be wearing finery such that they might wear in the various  
royal courts during this time of war which seems that it may last a  
Hundred Years. Many will likely don coathardies of fine linen to  
fight off the heat but none should stay away form the tournament  
simply for lack of courtly attire.  In sooth, fortunes may be changed  
this day!

There are residences within the Village of Castleton but they are  
largely taken by the residents of Castleton or made available for the  
visiting royals.  I would suggest therefore to have your staff bring  
your tournament pavilions to enjoy an evenings rest beside the lake.

Castleton boast a fine tavern and prior to its doors opening we will  
be gathering for a community meal (potluck).

Why yes several merchants plan to set up shop and display their wares.
