Merchants

At Sletten, you will have the freedom and space to explore and experiment with your trade and commerce. There is ample opportunity to build new relationships, guilds, teach and share insights and ideas, and perhaps start bigger joint projects.

There are no tourists for you to entertain and keep an eye on, just actual reenactors that need the quality of your wares and appreciate their authenticity. This could be your new hub and annual meet for all viking age merchants people across Europe.

We welcome merchants without expectations of tithes on taxes. You’re a viking reenactor like the rest of us. And Sletten if for us, by us. We welcome ironmongers, jewelers, weavers, dyers, clothiers, tailors, chefs, woodworkers, ropemakers,toymakers, brewers and many many more… Join us. 

This is your adventure and opportunity.

Why should I come?

  • The nature, the people, the parties, the long talks around the fire, old friends and new.
  • At Sletten you will find 1500+ reenactors, that need, and appreciate your wares for their high quality and authenticity.
  • Sletten will have reenactors from the whole world, from Colombia to Canada to New Zealand, and everywhere in between.
  • At Sletten there is no tithe, tax, or any other special costs for merchants. You pay the same as everyone else.
  • There is room to spread out. You can set up your entire sales plot and your whole family. As long as you’re authentic. We use the same standards as Ribe and Trelleborg.
  • Sletten is ‘By Vikings, For Vikings’. That means merchants too! You’re just as important for the project as any fighter or craftsperson.
  • We encourage you to form guilds of merchants, if you want. To share your skills, problems, ideas and get help. Or anything else you like, Sletten is ours to shape!
  • In short, there will be lots of sales opportunities and lots of relaxing fun with friends.

How can I join?

If anything else comes up, we’ll figure it out together.
