Viking market Jork at the marina Neuenschleuse, 21635 Jork

For organizational reasons, the Viking market in Jork in May 2025 unfortunately has to be cancelled. The next Viking market is expected to take place at the end of May 2026, again as usual in Jork.

The city of Hamburg offered us the opportunity to set up a themed area as part of a district festival. You can find more information and a registration form for actors who would like to take part here.

Here are some impressions from our market over the last few years.

Musically, we were delighted by the group Virelai from Denmark, among others.
Powerful medieval melodies and poetic Nordic ballads combined with an energetic and warm-hearted performance.

Since 1999, Virelai have performed for beggars, queens and everything in between. They are considered Denmark's happiest and longest touring folk band - this band will make you dance, sing and laugh!

Virelai have released seven albums and played more than a thousand concerts across Scandinavia, Europe, India and New Zealand over the past two decades.

We also had Event Falconry with their birds of prey as guests.

  

... as well as Knud who let the sparks fly with his magnificent fire show.
