More than a backyard pastime, kubb is a battle of strategy, skill, and nerve—where wooden batons fly, rivalries are forged, and champions are crowned.
Set against the backdrop of the U.S. National Kubb Championship in Eau Claire, Wisconsin—the Kubb Capital of North America—Kings of Kubb follows four elite competitors as they pursue glory on the pitch. Along the way, the film reveals a compelling story of friendship, ambition, legacy, and the age-old question: what does it take to become king?

Osberg Great Hall (doors open at 5:30 PM)
Come early and explore the Museum’s current exhibitions before the screening—including Moomins’ Sea Adventures and Tove and the Sea—and stop by Freya Café for a drink!
Gather at Skål Beer Hall
When the credits roll (approx. 8 PM), the saga continues at Skål Beer Hall. Join us for an informal post-film gathering where kubb warriors and Nordic culture enthusiasts can raise a horn together over drinks and conversation. As a special bonus worthy of the feast hall, guests who show their RSVP confirmation will receive 10% off their bill. Skål!
Tickets
$10 for Swedish Club and National Nordic Museum members
$15 General Admission
Whether you're a seasoned kubb warrior or discovering the game for the first time, Kings of Kubb is an entertaining and inspiring look at the sport that has captured hearts across North America.

Viking Disco: Leif Erikson’s Birthday Bash
On October 9th, we’re celebrating the one and only Leif Erikson the only way that makes sense: with a full-blown Viking Disco. Because obviously, if anyone deserves a dance floor, mead vibes, and a mirror ball, it’s him.
Doors + bar open at 5PM, and the music kicks off at 7PM—giving you plenty of time to settle in, grab a drink, and assemble your fiercest attire.
Costumes are highly encouraged—think Norse meets disco, the more dramatic the better.
Come ready to raid the dance floor. Valhalla would absolutely approve. 🪩⚔️
About Leif Erikson
Leif Erikson was a Norse explorer from Iceland, believed to have been born around 970 CE. He is widely credited as one of the first Europeans to set foot in North America—nearly 500 years before Christopher Columbus—where he is said to have established a settlement known as Vinland, likely located in what is now coastal Canada. Son of Erik the Red, Leif is a central figure in the Icelandic sagas and a symbol of exploration, curiosity, and seafaring adventure.
Here in Seattle, his legacy is especially visible: a statue of Leif Erikson stands at Shilshole Bay, reflecting the city’s maritime identity and Scandinavian heritage. Other notable monuments honoring him can be found in places like Boston, Massachusetts, and Reykjavík, Iceland.

Alongside these dishes, you’ll find buttery new potatoes served the traditional Swedish way, a creamy fresh herb sauce bursting with summer flavor, and a colorful medley of oven-roasted seasonal vegetables. The buffet also includes an assortment of fine cheeses paired with rustic freshly baked breads, as well as a crisp fresh garden salad with seasonal vegetables and a light dressing. To finish, indulge in a classic Swedish strawberry cake layered with cream, fresh strawberries, and the sweetness of summer.
Celebrate the magic of Swedish summer with delicious food, good company, and festive Midsummer spirit!

Join us for our June Members' Dinner—Arrive early at 5 PM to meet winemaker Even Johansen, learn about Dalset Wines, and enjoy a complimentary tasting before dinner. Then purchase a glass of your favorite Dalset wine to enjoy with your meal.
About Speaker: Even Johansen, Founder & Winemaker, Dalset & Sylvi Wines
Named for his family's historic farm in Norway, Dalset is Even Johansen's premium wine label—a tribute to his Scandinavian heritage and the values that have shaped his journey as a winemaker. From the fjords of Norway to the vineyards of Washington State, Even's path has been guided by a passion for craftsmanship, quality, and a deep connection to his family's roots.
After studying enology and viticulture in Walla Walla, Even gained experience with some of Washington's most respected wineries, including Bergevin Lane, Charles Smith Wines, K Vintners, UpsideDown Wines, and the legendary Screaming Eagle Winery in Napa Valley. He is also the founder of Sylvi Wines, a boutique winery known for expressive, small-lot wines and labels featuring his own original artwork.
Tonight, Even will share the story behind Dalset, his family's Norwegian legacy, and the experiences that have shaped his approach to winemaking—from Scandinavia to Washington wine country.
Featured Menu: Tonight's dinner has been thoughtfully prepared by Acorn Catering.

All Swedish Car Show – Celebration of Timeless Design & Engineering
Join us Saturday, June 6th from 11:00 AM – 1:30 PM for the All Swedish Car Show—a showcase celebrating the clean lines, smart engineering, and enduring style of Sweden’s most iconic automobiles.
From legendary classics to rare out-of-production gems, this is a gathering built for enthusiasts and the simply curious alike. Free and open to all ages, the show invites owners and fans to experience Swedish automotive excellence up close.
Expect a standout display of vehicles from brands like Volvo and Saab—names known for combining innovation, safety, and unmistakable Scandinavian design.
Whether you're competing for “Best in Show” or just soaking in the craftsmanship, this is your chance to experience a lineup defined by timeless style and Swedish ingenuity.
Did you know?
Volvo introduced the modern three-point seatbelt in 1959—and famously made the patent freely available to help save lives worldwide.
Saab originally began as an aircraft manufacturer, which is why many of its cars were engineered with aviation-inspired aerodynamics and safety thinking.
Some classic Swedish cars were designed to survive extreme Nordic winters so well that they’re still known for their durability in harsh climates decades later.
