Halloween at JORVIK Viking Centre

Step into the shadows this Halloween with our exclusive Dark Saga Tours—a sinister twist on our sold out Lates:Behind the Scenes tours. This time, we’re exploring the darker, more mysterious side of Norse Mythology. Join one of our resident skalds as they guide you through the hauntingly recreated streets of 9th Century York, weaving tales so terrifying they kept even the bravest Vikings awake at night.

Prepare yourself for stories of vengeful gods, ancient curses, dark magic, and the dreaded draugr—the undead who roam the night. These chilling sagas are not for the faint of heart.

This event is strictly for those aged 18 and over, so leave the little Vikings at home as you venture out into the streets of Coppergate after dark.

Each tour lasts one hour, with small group sizes for an intimate experience.

Tickets are £25 per person, with tours departing every 30 minutes between 7:00 pm and 9:00 pm on Wednesday, October 30th, and Thursday, October 31st.

Pre-book your tickets today to experience a darker side of JORVIK like you’ve never seen before.

Please note that the floor of Viking-age Coppergate is uneven, so we strongly recommend wearing suitable footwear.
