A seaside village took a step back in time this weekend as Viking invaders set up their own village.

Hemsby, near Great Yarmouth, hosted its first Viking festival to celebrate the area's historic links.

Re-enactment group the Vikings of Middle England put on displays of all aspects of daily life, from making weapons and cooking to the gruesome treatments at a Viking surgery.

Hundreds of people turned out for the festival, which took place on Saturday and Sunday, despite the unseasonably cold weather.

2011 Bookings & Website Launch

6th February 2010

Vikings of Middle England are proud to announce the launch of their new website at vikingsofmiddleengland.co.uk. Though far from complete, it is hoped that you - our customers - can better find the information you need to make the correct decision for your event.

We are also delighted to be open to bookings for 2011. 2010 has only just begun, but we are almost nearly fully booked for the summer at several new and exciting venues. We will still consider spring and winter bookings, including evening performances, however.
