Now in its 27th year the annual world renowned JORVIK Viking festival is a city-wide celebration of York’s Viking heritage. With guided walks, street performers, lectures and battle re-enactments the festival is an exciting time to stay in York, and with so many family friendly events it the perfect time for a family break in this wonderful city. Our self-catering apartment is ideally situated to enjoy this intentionally acclaimed event being only 5mins walk from the JORVIK Viking Centre.

The Festival will revisit the events of the early 11th century, a time when King Ethelred sat on the English throne and struggled for survival in the face of repeated Danish invasions. His ally, the Viking Olaf Haraldsson, will lead the fight against the Danes in the spectacular Festival battle finale on Saturday 18th February, which will see hundreds of armed warriors clash, before a fiery climax featuring fireworks and a boat burning.

Dates: 11th-19th February 2012 (for more info see: www.jorvik-viking-centre.co.uk)
