Vikings Take Vista And Celebrate With Festival - Fun For All!
VISTA, Calif., Sept 15, 2014 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- EXPLORE AND CONQUER, just like the Vikings, the weekend of Sept. 27 and 28, 2014 at Norway Hall, 2006 E. Vista Way, Vista 92084, North San Diego County. www.vikingfestivalvista.com
See Viking encampments, sword battles and at night, flaming axes! Learn to throw an axe or spear, try archery, all this and more at the Raiders' Weapons Range. Test your strength at the always popular Viking Log Toss. Take part in contests like the Famous Fish Fling, Battle Cry, or Horn Blowing Competitions! New this year, the "Fear the Beard" contest.
Enjoy live Viking/Celtic style music on two stages. Scheduled to appear: Highland Way, the Dread Crew of Oddwood, Raggle Taggle, Clan and for your laughing pleasure, the Bawdy Juggler. And to stir your Viking soul, the ancient rhythms of Odin's Drummers. While you are entertained, feast on Nordic food and quench your thirst with ale or mead, some brewed exclusively for our festival.
KidZone offers painting of wooden shields and swords, jumping in the Bouncy Castle, Face Painting, Rune Quest and more. Enter the nearby Norway Hall for Fresh Lefse, Meatball Meals, Norwegian Cookies, Scandinavian Crafts and non-alcoholic beverages.
All roads lead to the Vendors' Village! Search their stalls for helmets, drinking horns and mugs, swords, Viking jewelry and Valkyrie attire. And as you stroll through the shady Northern Territory, along Peddlers' Path, see Vikings casting pewter, yarn dying, weaving and baking bread in clay ovens.
