Iceland Viking Festival
🏞️ Iceland’s historic Viking Festival has been held annually since 1995 on the second weekend of June, lasting 5–6 days. Since 2018, it has taken place at Víðistaðatún Park in Hafnarfjörður. ⚔️ Festival Highlights 🚢 Viking Longship Parade: Locals dress in animal pelts and bronze jewelry, sailing replica Viking ships—axes and shields clashing, transporting you to the 8th–11th century Norse golden age. 🛡️ Immersive Activities: Viking market: Silver pendants, hand-carved bracelets, and wool tapestries depicting Norse myths. Sword-fighting demonstrations and medieval feasts filled with roasted lamb, smoked fish, fermented bread, and honey-glazed wild boar ribs. 🔥 Nighttime Bonfire Feast: As fires light up the sky, indulge in a Viking-style banquet with mead (honey wine) and hearty dishes. 🌟 Viking Festival Bucket List ✅ Wear animal fur & rune jewelry for time-travel photos. ✅ Sip mead while watching Viking combat shows. ✅ Try archery or axe-throwing like a true Norseman #Víðistaðatún Park # Víðistaðatún Park #travel guiide#Iceland#Viking Festival#Reykjavík
