We are very excited to see a variety of Ancient Norse characters of history and mythology! For the safety of those around you, we do ask that if you have any swords, knives, axes, or any other bladed gear that you are bringing as a part of your costume, then these items should please be peace-tied into their sheathes. Additionally, arrows should be peace-tied together inside a quiver. Thank you for your cooperation!
