We are the New Zealand Norsemen, a Viking Age Living History Society recreating life from the years 793 to 1066. As a Northern European culture group we cater for all ages, both males and females and for all interests in the Viking Age. Members can engage in a wide range of interest from armed martial arts to camping, crafts, music, history and even religion.

We always try to put authenticity first and members will use their bare feet before modern shoes and itchy wool before cotton. We pride ourselves on our use of traditional battlefield tactics and techniques holding numerous titles in massed group and individual combat.

We are available as both an educational group, hiring for schools and educational institutions performing shows that cater for ALL ages and subject knowledge; and as an entertainment group, putting on battle displays, feasts, events and many other forms of frivolity. Any questions or queries please feel free to contact us for further information or a Public Events pamphlet.

You can catch us at the Taupo Great Lakes Tourney being held on Auckland Anniversary Weekend January 26, 27 and 28 at Spa Park, Taupo.
