There are only two seasons in the Viking world.
Summer and Winter.
It is winter.
Night and day are dark and the air is cold. Raids must stop. Longboats are pulled out of the freezing river onto land, and the Great Army must shelter from the harsh weather.
In the dark, fire meets ice and crackles. A story can be heard on the wind. A tune is played. A laugh rings out!
This summer, visit the Winter… as the camp dwellers bring the dark season to life with stories, music, games and laughter.
Meet characters from the Winter camp and discover more from the Viking North exhibition through live performance and interactive interpretation with History Riot.
