You can't partake in the feast without also owning a festival access ticket of some kind be it a day one for the same day or the full weekend one.
I'm sure you're familiar with the scene from Medieval and Viking movies and TV shows. Rows and rows of long tables in a large hall, chanting, singing, dancing while sharing food and drink. Well that's what we're aiming for at the Valhalla Viking Feast.
After a day of workshops, battles, axe throwing and blacksmithing, as the evening draws in, the Mead Hall will open its doors to 500 Heathens, Vikings and Pagans attending the festival.
The feast will last ~3 hours, during this time sharing platters of food will be coming out to the tables, as well as ale, mead and other drinks. We'll do our best to make sure your horns don't empty and the food fills you up. Music will be playing on the stage during the feast every night. The amount of food is the same each night, but what comes on the platters varies slightly each night to offer some variety.
You will be seated alongside hundreds of other vikings in the Mead Hall and the experience is all about the atmosphere, the sense of community within the Horde while sharing food and drinks with your fellow Vikings. They've been known to burst out into popular songs and chants or an infectious spontaneous Valhalla call with everyone raising their drinks at the same time and enjoying the music and performances from the main stage located inside the Mead hall.
How it works? When you're seated, a sharing platter of meats, cheeses, fruit, bread and bagels will be waiting for you on the table so you can dig in when you sit down. Once these have been cleared, a sharing platter stacked of meat and a separate sharing platter of vegetable sides will come to every table. Shortly after, a server will go around with platters for topping up of each kind of dish on the initial platter for the duration of the feast. For more details on how the feast works etc. please check the F.A.Q page. The styled images show examples of the kind of food you can expect all at the same time just to give you an idea. We'll not be stylizing the platters on the day the same way. The platters will arrive staggered on the day. Think of it as a starter, main and desert all intended to be shared among 6 people. It is not an experience for fussy eaters but it is an amazing experience for anyone who loves a good time.
What does the feast fee cover? We get asked this a lot. The amount you pay for the feast covers either a part of or entirely the following. Basically if it is a cost directly for and only for the feast, it is covered by the cost of your ticket. If something is only partly associated with the feast, your ticket covers a portion of the cost. (i.e. feast tickets cover the bands that play during the feast in full, stage costs are shared with day tickets as well)
- feast hall hire
- hiring the tables
- hiring the benches
- hiring the 3 fridge trailers
- generator costs and fuel to run kitchen, stage and feast hall
- buying the plates and cutlery
- cost of feast only wristbands
- kitchen equipment rental
- kitchen consumables
- staff costs both in kitchen and serving
- waste disposal directly associated with the feast
- bands playing during the feast, 2 per feast, are directly tied to the cost of your feast ticket (so for a band that charges £1000 per performance, £20 of your feast ticket, goes directly towards covering the performance you're enjoying)
- Drinks ALE, MEAD, CIDER, SELECTION OF SOFT DRINKS
- THE FOOD (cold sharing platter, platter of breads, hot main platter meat version/veggie version/vegan version/gluten free version), platter of sides. Roughly £30-£35 of your ticket covers the food part each night.
Please note dogs are not allowed in the feast hall during the feast. If you want to bring your dog then you will have to stay in the garden section during the feast.
If you need any help and can't see anyone coming down the row, you can get help by going to the left side of the stage where a designated person will be posted to help with any feast needs.
