For the past eleven years, some of the world's most famous clowns meet in August at the
International Clown Festival at the Bakken Amusement Park. There are daily shows on the open-air stage, a Clown Gala Show in the circus tent and the presentation of international prizes and awards, in recognition of comic performances and giving the public great, original and entertaining experiences.
Plenty of slapstick fun and outrageous behavior from masters of laughter. This year's festival runs 11 and 12 August, 2007.

A
replica Viking ship has begun an epic trip across the North Sea to Dublin, Ireland, from the Danish port of Roskilde. The seven week voyage aims to recreate journeys made by the Vikings 1,000 years ago.
The ship, called the Sea Stallion, is only powered by sail, and 65 volunteer crew members who will be rowing and braving the elements on the open deck throughout the trip.
There are some interesting
History Holidays in our listings, though most are thought to be less demanding than two months role play as a Viking sailor!
