What happens
A market and camp on a coastal meadow south of Hamburgsund, with traders and craftspeople from across Europe, Viking boats, archery, axe throwing, music and staged battles. The association behind it works year round on crafts, theatre and sailing, and the market is where it all comes together. The Bohuslän coast in early August is reason enough on its own.
Getting there
Hamburgsund is about an hour and forty minutes north of Gothenburg by car, via the E6 to Tanum and then coast roads. The site is signposted from the village. Public transport reaches Tanumshede; the last stretch needs a car or taxi.
