Feasts
 

he life of any hardworking medievalist would not be complete without a good feast. We hold regular feasts that include an authentic meal, lively entertainment, and perhaps the telling of a rousing saga.
bove, you can see two examples of the evenings entertainment. One is the annual wrestling match, a pastime that Vikings regularly enjoyed. At a feast, there would be much free flowing ale, mead and cider, which also meant that tempers would quickly flare up. To avoid bloodshed at what was supposed to be a happy event, the opponents would wrestle instead. The other photo is of one of our members who has mastered the art of fire breathing.
