Trials of Ragnarök

Trials of Ragnarök is not your average Renaissance Faire or fantasy festival. Trials of Ragnarök is where strength is tested, allegiances are forged, and legends are made! Set at Carden Farm Dog Park in Clinton, Tennessee just 20 minutes outside of Knoxville. This family friendly Viking-inspired gathering calls warriors and wanderers to step into a world where myth becomes reality! And you choose your adventure as you walk through the gates.

Choose your faction by joining the vikings, knights or fairies in your quest for glory!

Come see live performances and musical acts, shop local artisans, enjoy a variety of food and quench your thirst at our beer garden. 

Come dressed in costume or observe the magic and wonder! And for those that dare compete in the ultimate challenge...The Trials Competition! 

Trials Competition 

Challenge the strength of Asgard by facing off in  The Trials Competition! By demonstrating the characteristics of Odin and Thor, you can prove you are worthy to feast with the warriors and champions in Valhalla! 

All who compete in these Trials shall earn a token of valor—but three warriors that rise above will claim a prize on Saturday and Sunday,  a treasure worthy of the Gods—and one shall have their name etched into legend.

Trials of Ragnarök is a rain or shine event.

Mark your calendar because Trials of Ragnarök is unlike any other event and you don't want to miss it. There will be music, food, vendors, activities, and most importantly community. Step into the story or watch from the sidelines. Trials has something for everyone! You choose your adventure as you walk through the gates.
