Again this year the Viking group Harfsfjordvikingerne organizes a Viking Market. In 2007 the market was placed on the saga island Rott but in 2008 the market has moved into the legendary Hafrs Fjord - the place where Harold Fairhair unified Norway to one kingdom. In

The market will be placed in an idyllic park in Møllebukta near Sverd.

Trading people, musicians, battle, games, archery - and of course Viking ships will be part of the market.

The Viking group Harfsfjordvikingerne has also a tradition of involving the locals schools in Viking life at the market.

In 2008 the nearby town Stavanger was celebrating being Capital of Culture 2008 and many visitors are expected to the this region this summer.
