SATURDAY JULY 27 @ VIKING AXE THROWING IN WESTMINSTER
Raise a horn for Olsok, a feast day honoring the mighty King Olaf II Haraldsson! Every year in July, we gather across Norway, the Faroe Islands, and even parts of Sweden and Finland, to remember the king who was slain by a pagan Viking's axe on the battlefield. Though times have changed, Olsok remains a day to honor Olaf's memory and the strength he brought to Nordic people.
The theme of our Olsok party is light and dark-- celebrating both in each of us.
