Because what we do goes beyond garb and gear.
Because the events we serve aren’t just stops on a map—they’re home.
And because you deserve more than a transaction. You deserve an experience.

At Vildnfri, we are more than a business. We are a family of artisans, performers, fighters, historians, and dreamers. We don’t just show up to work at Renaissance faires and Viking festivals—we attend them, love them, and live for them. For us, this isn’t a hobby or a side gig. This is a way of life.

We’re Here to Make Memories

Our crew lives for the spark in a kid’s eye when they pick up their first shield. For the laughter of someone striking a heroic pose in full garb for a silly photo. For the wonder on a child’s face when they realize they’re not just at a faire—they’ve stepped into a different world.

We’ve seen firsthand how a single magical moment—hearing a Viking song, learning how to swing a sword, laughing around a fire—can turn a first-time faire visit into a lifelong memory. We take that seriously. Many people say Renaissance faires feel like home. Our job is to help them feel like they belong there.

We believe being wild and free means being yourself—fully, joyfully, and without apology. That’s the space we try to create everywhere we go.

We Are Craftspeople and Curators

We design and make many of our own items—shields, seaxes, forged knives, leather armor, garb, and accessories. The rest we carefully curate from talented artisans and trusted manufacturers around the world. Some are personal friends. Some are partners we’ve sought out for their craftsmanship and values. All are chosen with care.

You’ll never find mass-produced junk in our camp. We choose quality and purpose in everything we offer—gear that looks good, feels good, and holds up to real use, whether you’re adventuring for a weekend or a season.

We believe in keeping our prices fair and our standards high. That way, every adventurer—from the first-time fairegoer to the seasoned reenactor—can find something that fits their journey.

We Know What We’re Talking About

Among our crew are weapons and combat experts with backgrounds in historical European martial arts, ancient warfare, and modern fighting techniques. We’re students of history, passionate about how people lived, fought, dressed, and survived across time and culture.

But we’re not just here to lecture—we’re here to share. We answer questions. We tell stories. We bring history and fantasy to life in a way that’s fun, approachable, and engaging for all ages.

We’re a Crew, and You’re Part of It

At our core, we are a family. We started with a dad and his kids making Viking costumes for Halloween. Now we’re a team traveling from faire to faire—setting up camp, putting on a show, and doing what we love together.

And when you stop by, you become part of that. Whether you’re looking for a handmade shield, your next piece of garb, or just a warm welcome and a good story—you’ll find it here.
