Viking Days: Mystic Seaport Museum is transformed for the second annual celebration of Viking culture, complete with a Viking market, trade demonstrations, musical and theatrical performances, lectures, and on-the-water activities. Visit a Viking village encampment by living historians Draugar Vinlands, and the Viking longship, Draken Harald Hårfagre, whose new documentary about crossing the North Atlantic can be viewed.
Sample Scandinavian fare, and watch traditional faering sailing and a Nordic boat-building demonstration. There will be hands-on activities and games for children and adults throughout the day, and a special planetarium show on Viking navigation.
Viking attire welcomed (but no full-face masks/helmets or authentic weapons)!
