Bard Festival at the Iron Age Village
A two-day music and storytelling festival celebrating ancient and medieval music, songs, entertainment, and captivating tales.
Step into a festival from another era, where dramatic stories come alive in the glow of the flames, or join a lively chain dance under the open sky. Relax and enjoy medieval choral music and the enchanting sounds of the Viking Age played on unique instruments like gemshorns, Falster pipes, or hurdy-gurdies. Attend an inspiring lecture about the past by an archaeologist or author. You might even try your hand at storytelling, singing, or playing music on our open stage.
Saturday’s program is tailored to an adult audience, though children are warmly welcome. Sunday’s program is designed for the whole family, featuring workshops and activities especially for younger festival-goers. Throughout the weekend, you can savor delicious food and drinks, such as frothy draught beer from Arnestedet, hearty fire-cooked dishes, or a glass of delectable mead.
