Vikings invade Bay Ridge

They’re taking Bay Ridge by storm.

Come and celebrate all things Nordic at the annual Viking Fest. The event will feature replicas of Viking ships, exhibits on Nordic pastimes including embroidery and spinning, and, of course, plenty of folks in Viking garb. Storytellers will regale children with tales of Viking revelry, and children will learn all about the culture.

Viking Fest on May 14 from 10 am to 5 pm. Free.

Owl’s Head Park (69th Street and Colonial Road in Bay Ridge, www.scandinavian-museum.org/events).
