Tour de Risør
Three concerts at three different venues. Meet at the town square, and we'll stroll together through Norway's most beautiful summer town, enjoying a musical smorgasbord.
About the concert
The concept is simple. We meet at the town square after the Free Concert, split into three groups, and head off to our respective concerts. Then we rotate. All venues are within easy walking distance, so bring comfortable shoes and good spirits!
The music is delightfully varied – and that's the point. Three different venues, three different experiences. What could be better for your wellbeing than a walk through Norway's most beautiful summer town with musical treats and good company?
