Jorvik Viking Festival, 

York, United Kingdom

01 Feb 2010 - 28 Feb 2010 Date to be confirmed  

For five days every year, Vikings take over the historic city of York. Visitors can shop in a Viking market, take part in a Viking battle drill, meet Vikings and chat to archaeologists about York's most recent excavations. There are also organised walks taking in York's fascinating Scandinavian past and loads of activities for children. Even better, many of this can be done for free! Other events, which need to be booked in advance, include special screenings of Viking-themed films, the Great Jorvik Balloon Release and the Trial of Strength.
