• Flamborough Fireballs
  • Hundreds of years ago fireballs and fire torches were made and used by the Vikings of Flamborough to burn off the evil sprits left from the old year so that the spirits of the New Year could come in fresh and clean to the village.The swinging of fireballs were used as a sign of bringing good luck to the community with the celebration of New Year’s Eve first introduced by the Vikings as a festival to toast Odin their famous God!
• Viking Torchlight Procession

    All visitors to the Flamborough Fire Festival are invited to take part in the magnificent Viking Torchlight and Viking Longship Procession.

    The Torchlight Procession promises to be a very special focal point of the Festival… with about 1,200 Viking Torches twinkling together in the moonlight it’s going to be absolutely fantastic!

    We aim to take you back in time to when the Viking Warriors first invaded Flamborough with their flaming torches aloft in triumph! You will be walking in the footsteps of Flamborough’s famous Vikings!
