As one year ends and another begins, we want to say thank you.
To everyone who read, shared, supported, showed up and believed in what we do: you made 2025 unforgettable.

2026 is extra special: 10 years of the GRIMM online publication in the form you know it to be today. And 10 years ago that we visited our first Tuska Festival! What a ride it has been!

To celebrate we will be looking back in some special articles, digging deep in our history and archives, while continuing to build what comes next.

Here’s to the next chapter.
Here’s to ten years and to everything still waiting to unfold.

And to wrap up the second edition of Litha Fest in style, we had Garters and Giggles and Dwayne Pyro treat us on a magical fire ritual!

There was so much more to do at the second edition of our event Litha Fest besides checking out the musical performances! You could learn how to folk dance with Balhalla, or how to sword fight with SwArta, get yourself a massage from De Viking Masseur, check out the many unique vendors that showed up or just simply enjoy the wonderful atmosphere!

On the second and smaller stage in Asgaard, we got to enjoy enchanting shows of Gentse Folk Studenten, Sanseveria, and Eleni Neldë at the second edition of our festival Litha Fest!

Construction

A little love for our volunteers who helped build Litha Fest 2025! Without them, this wouldn’t have been possible!

The second edition of our very own ‘Litha Fest’ festival brought performances of Hexacurse, Blod Dyr, Serpents Oath, Vanaheim, Prima Nocta and Arkona to the main stage about a month ago!

In the beginning of July, we hosted our very own Midsummer Folkfestival, fittingly named Litha Fest, and it was a great success with workshops, a lovely market and tons of other things to discover besides the amazing performances of Hert, Faybula, Sorcières, Nytt Land and Faie!
