Living History – Viking Village

Step into the World of the Vikings at Timahoe Heritage Festival!

Experience Viking life as it truly was with the Magnus Viking Association, one of Ireland’s longest-running Viking Age living history groups!

Founded after the first Magnus Barelegs Viking Festival in 2002, this dedicated group brings history to life through immersive displays of Viking cookery, textiles, herbalism, blacksmithing, and combat demonstrations. Led by chairman Philip Campbell, they strive to educate and entertain, giving visitors an authentic glimpse into daily life in Viking-age Ireland.

🏕️ The Viking Village will be open on both festival days, starting at 12 PM daily, at Timahoe Soccer Field, just a short walk from the Heritage Centre.

🔗 Best of all – entry is FREE!

Don’t miss your chance to step back in time and witness history come alive!
