Family Friendly Events in Bergen

In Bergen you will find wide range of activities and events for children and families throughout the year.

Most museums and attractions like Fløibanen funicular, Bergen Aquarium, VilVite and Kode have family friendly events and often extra events during school holidays.

Many festivals also have a separate children's program such as the Bergen International Festival in May / June.

Bergen City Marathon held every year in April has its own race for children both for the youngest and the older who would like to run a longer trail.

Bergen Jazz Forum has its own concert series for children and families with the concept Bajazz. Also a popular event for families is Bergen Food Festival which is held every year in September.

The kids tend to enjoy the free tasters as well as the many family friendly activities.

Throughout the year there are continuous live performances at various venues such as for example the Grieg Hall. Take a look at the event calendar and find the events of your choice.
