Event details

Come on out and join the Canton of Brokenbridge in the Province of Ostgardr on a fine May Saturday to celebrate all things Viking and beyond!
Bring your completed and ongoing projects to share with the public.
Fighters and fencers come on out and amaze the attending public with your prowess and skill.  Bring all your demo gear and have some fun with good company.

Our Hosts are the Scandinavian East Coast Museum having their annual Viking Fest.  They have some performances during the day near the center of the Fest.  As well as a Viking Ship brought in by the museum.  This is a Public Park, NYC park rules apply.

The Viking Fest is from 10am - 5pm.  We know that you all need to unload heavy items.  If you need to bring in a vehicle, please stay on the blacktop and make sure that your vehicle is gone by 9:30am.  Entrance to drive vehicle in is on 68th Street.

Any parking will be Street Parking, as there is no parking lot for the park.  This is a rather residential area so parking isn't horrible.

There is plenty of space for everyone.  Please let the Seneschal of Brokenbridge know if you are attending and what you are bringing.  So, he can make sure there is a place for you to showcase.

There is limited space for pop-ups, but if you bring one we will see if it's needed and you can set it up with the rest of them as shade is a good thing. 


Site Opens: 8am
Site Closes: 5pm
