Since 1980, Largs Viking Festival has marked the 1263 Battle of Largs, the last mainland battle between the Scots and the Norse.
Every year the living history Viking Village opens to the public offering a glimpse of what life would have been like in a 13th Century Viking Village.
Come and talk to the Vikings about their way of life; learn about how they made their clothes, weapons, jewellery and food. Ask the Vikings about their religion, beliefs, homes, crafts, ships, their homeland and why they left it…

Sponsorship
Each year the festival contributes to the local economy as well as helping to develop the town's cultural and tourism links. It provides an insight into the history of the Battle of Largs while also presenting events that have wide public and community appeal. These events cover history, education, entertainment and benevolence.
None of this would be possible without the help of our sponsors and supporters.
