Under the theme “Summer on Sørlandet ” everything from a moonlight cruise with opera to a sunshine trip and shellfish on the fjord with Silya, Sigvart Dagsland, Ingebjørg Bratland and Janove from the Kaizers Orchestra was launched a few weeks ago. All the tickets for these concerts were torn away. It shows that the unique offer is popular in a summer where Norwegians want to holiday in their home country once again.

- Now we enter into a partnership with Kilden so that we can put out more tickets, says Knut Arne Gjertsen, general manager of the Foundation The Ship Sørlandet . There is limited space The Ship , but we have some exciting ideas about how it can be absolutely fantastic, he continues with a twinkle in his eye. The tickets will already be released on Thursday 10 June at 12.00.

The Ship will be added to the quay vis-a-vis The source and the jetty will then be covered with tables and chairs so that those who secure the extra tickets can watch the stage directly on board the monumental sailing ship. And at the tables, good food and drink will be served to the lucky guests.

In the first instance, extra tickets will be put out for Sigvart Dagsland and Janove from Kaizers Orchestra.
