Time: 11:00 am – 3:00 pm each day
This is our biggest event of the year, typically attracting over 700 visitors who are interested in Viking lore. Through the cooperation of Viking re-enactment groups from Calgary and Edmonton, visitors can tour the Viking encampment, showing living accommodations, cooking methods and crafts. You can also try some mead [a favorite of ancient Vikings] which is a type of wine made from honey. Participants tour the Viking village, experience some Viking history, and see them demonstrate a battle re-enactment.
If you ask them nicely, a Viking might even join your table for dinner.
