The Vikings of Utah were first invited to join the Scandinavian Festival in 2022. Since then, the group has grown a bit each year, offering something fun, educational and engaging to guests and fans of Norse heritage, culture and history.
The Vikings of Utah Historical Group is an authentic, living Norse-Viking camp experience put on by local, fun & talented members, who are dedicated to the preserving and teaching of history, historical arts, craft and skill. The group was founded by Stacy Russon in 2016 and has been a unique and exciting feature to several Utah events, festivals and school activities. We hope you come and enjoy the fun and activities the Viking camp has to offer!
