During the Viking Age was this the site of a great summer market which, according to the Faroese saga was the largest in Scandinavia. Our modern-day Viking market also attracts many Vikings. You are all cordially invited to this year's market! Depending on how things develop during the winter and spring it may be a limited market in 2021, like last year, where some market activities are cancelled.
June 27 - July 3 During craft days, you can take part out of many exciting things. Wrought iron, brick ribbon weaving, dying, Viking cooking, wood carving etc. are some of the crafts as will be demonstrated in place.
July 1 - July 3 The Viking Week culminates in our fantastic Viking market during the weekend.

The Viking Games Open competition will once again be held this year in a similar form to previous years.
