The Viking festival is for the whole family
16. - 19. June 2016
It‘s almost time for us to begin celebrations for the 21st annual Viking
Festival and just as always, we will have many different exciting
things to offer you! An amazing group of Vikings traveling from all
over the world will come and celebrate with us –some of whom have
been with us every single year from the very beginning. These Great
Vikings are storytellers, street artists, and musicians. Some of these
artisans work in rock, some in wood, some are blacksmiths and others
are warriors ready to show their stength or markmenship with bows
and the like. Hundreds of Vikings from around the country, including
the group Rimmugýgur have already confirmed their plans to take part
in the festivities –hundreds of vikings of all different talents will be
here with us taking part. You can get a better idea of who, from the
list above!
Finally, I want to give my heartfelt thanks to all of you who have
supported this dream of mine throughout the years. You will find the
logos of our wonderful supporters displayed in the program of events.
Not a one of these great supporters has faultered; they continue to
stand with us year after year, and we are forever grateful.
It is my great hope that this years festivities will exceed the expections
of our vikings and guests alike and we do hope that each and every one
of you has a wonderful experience with us again this year!
