Festspillene i Tønsberg
The opening concert will feature Marinemusikken (the Royal Norwegian Navy Band), one of Norway’s finest concert band, performing together with outstanding soloists and one of Norway’s most accomplished conductors.
The Festspillene i Tønsberg is a new major initiative in classical music. The Festival was held for the very first time in the fall of 2025 in Tønsberg Cathedral with musical experiences of international class!
The Festival combines local cultural life with a clear focus on international ties and a high artistic level. The audience can look forward to concerts with some of Norway's leading musicians, as well as artists from Ireland, Poland, Austria and Azerbaijan.
The goal is to create a festival that both reflects the rich cultural life in the region and at the same time opens the doors to impulses from outside.

Foynhagen
On the harbour in Tønsberg you’ll find Foynhagen, an idyllic spot right by the water. Foynhagen is located on a historical ground, where Svend Foyn, a pioneer in norwegian whale catching, lived.
Today the spot is perfect as a concerts arena during the summer. Both international and national artist have performed in the outdoor arena. Right next door is the restaurant Foyn restaurant, which offers exciting meals and outdoor seating.
The location is perfect for both small and big companies events, business dinners, kick off, launches, fairs and birthdays. With years of experience, Foynhagen is glad to help out with activities and entertainment if needed.
