Shanty & Folk Son Singalong

Gather round, mateys, and prepare your vocal cords for a voyage through the ages! Whether you’re a rugged deckhand, a fearless Viking, or a wanderer from Middle-earth, this is the circle where every voice finds its place. At C2E2 2026, we’re setting aside the modern world to revive the roaring melodies of “ye olden days” in a high-energy, communal sing-along that celebrates the history and fantasy we love.

This panel dive right into the rhythmic tradition of sea shanties, the haunting echoes of Viking ballads, and the tavern-ready tunes of the medieval era. But we aren’t stopping in the past—we’ll also be raising our voices to the iconic anthems of pop culture, from the seafaring tracks of Assassin’s Creed to the legendary choruses of The Lord of the Rings.

Hosted by the first mate Shenk and King Canute this session is all about participation. We encourage every fan to step up, grab the proverbial mic, and lead the crew in a song of their choosing. No professional training is required—just a passion for a good chorus and a bit of pirate spirit. Whether you’re here to lead a shanty or just hum along with the crowd, come find your crew. All for one, and one for all!
