As part of our quest to give ever-improved functionality to our readers, oldnorsenews.org is pleased to announce the launch of our Old Norse Event Calendar. It’s in the sidebar at the right of the page. When you see a date in red on this calendar, that means there’s an Old Norse or Medieval Scandinavia-related event taking place on that day. Move your mouse over the date to get brief details; click to see full details.
Alternatively, if you move down to ‘categories’ on the sidebar, and click ‘events‘, you’ll be taken to a chronological list of forthcoming conferences, courses, meetings, lectures: everything we hear about.
If you know of a relevant event that’s not yet listed, or would like to publicize something you’re organizing yourself, please get in touch.
