Magnus Barelegs Festival this August

Saturday 24 and Sunday 25 August, this year's Magus Barelegs Festival is going to be the biggest and best you’ve ever seen.

On the hill of Delamont, over looking the shores of Strangford Lough, battle brews between the Viking and Celtic clans.

Come and browse the Medieval Market with a wide variety of wares for sale! Be transported back in time to when the Celtic and Viking clans scrambled for land and title.

Experience a true giant spirit as we prepare your young warriors and shield maidens for battle. Learn tactics and take on a shield wall of warriors in our Viking School of Battle.

See the battle displays from the Magnus Viking Associationwith many other clans invited from across the country! The impressive boat burning funeral pyre will surely be a memorable experience for the entire family! The weekend will be filled with lots of other children's activities to keep everyone entertained.
