California's Premiere Viking and Nordic Heritage Event is set for its 22nd year! The Vista Viking Festival will be held again at the Antique Gas and Steam Engine Museum on September 21 and 22, 2024. Come see our Viking's in their camps and get a glimpse of Viking life. Listen to live music from local favorites Highland Way, Blindfold Monks, Silk Button Butchers, Damekor, and more.
Browse our vendor village, enjoy food from our food merchants, and wash everything down with libations of mead and ale from our Beer Garden. Try your hand at axe throwing, archery, and spear flinging on our Weapons Range. Enjoy Norwegian and Viking cultural demonstrations, competitions, and battles!
Vista Viking Festival is sponsored by Norway Hall Foundation, a non-profit California 501(c)3 and its member organizations: Sons of Norway Lodge 6-060 and Norwegian Fish Club Odin.
