Village Viking Festival : Halls of Valhalla

Step into the Saga: Village Viking Festival 2026

Join us May 1–3, 2026, at the Great Geauga County Fairgrounds in Burton, Ohio, for an unforgettable celebration of Norse history and culture!
Relive the thrilling excitement of last year's epic festival, where Viking reenactors clashed in combat, axe-throwing challenges tested your aim, and a fully functional Viking village brought the past to life!

Whether you're a history enthusiast, a family in search of adventure, or simply curious about the Viking way of life, this year's festival offers:

• 🛡️ Authentic Norse Reenactments — Watch warriors display traditional tactics and strength!
• 🏺 Norse Craftsmanship & Marketplace — Shop handcrafted wares from talented artisans!
• ⚒️ Interactive Demonstrations — Learn about blacksmithing and daily Viking life!
• 👨‍👩‍👧 Family Day — On Friday, May 1, bring school groups or families to explore Viking culture, meet Viking-era animals, and join an evening drum circle under the stars!

Last year's festival was a resounding success—bigger, more immersive, and filled with educational energy. As one organizer described it, our goal is to provide “a living educational experience with real-world skills that allow the youth of today to experience life from another era.”

Tickets:

• Adults: $15
• Children (5–12): $7
