Play games from the viking age such as Nine Men’s Morris and Hnefatafl, as well as engage in a number of other games and contests such as axe throwing and testing your strength and worthiness through Thor’s hammer!

Get your kids engaged with hands on arts and crafts, with a multitude of different coloring pages to choose from, as well as safe but fun swords and shields!

Along side arts and crafts, families can enjoy a full scale puzzle! Around the grounds of the festival, there will be runes etched into signs. Each of these runes are associated with a placement on a Rune Quest card that you can solve!
