Pre-festival events
Site visits
May 20th
On Tuesday 20th May, prior to the festival programme, we have put together packages of industry site visits and unforgettable experiences.
We call it "Nature and Knowledge"!
Whether you are coming from abroad or you are based in Norway, we will show you the innovations Norway is building in offshore wind, and you will experience some of our country's finest offerings over these two days. You'll see how our deep fjords are not only good for assembling turbines, but also home to the most breath-taking nature and landscapes. But most importantly, these two days provides invaluable networking in the homeland of Vikings.
What to expect
Business done the Norwegian way
This region of Norway is at the forefront of technology and developments in floating wind. Choose from a programme of site visits which combine deep dives into your area of interest with a real flavour of Norwegian nature and culture.
