Musikkfestivaler

This scheme provides "tilskudd til musikkfestivaler i Norge som hovedsakelig består av offentlige konserter" (grants for music festivals in Norway that mainly consist of public concerts). The scheme aims to promote artistic and cultural diversity, renew and preserve music traditions, ensure quality, promote children's and youth programming, and reach audiences across the country.

Eligible applicants must be a festival with its own organisasjonsnummer (organisation number), or a named festival with its own budget within a larger entity. The festival must be arranged regularly, consist mainly of concerts, be publicly accessible via ticket sales, occur yearly or biennially, and have a minimum of two concerts per day on average. Applicants receiving fixed annual state subsidies are normally ineligible.

No minimum or maximum grant amounts are stated on the page. The page states a deadline of "18. august kl. 13:00" without specifying the year. Multi-year grants are available within fixed periods (the page mentions 2027–2029 and 2030–2032 as examples). Applications are submitted via https://tilskudd.kulturdirektoratet.no/utlysning/CCA848BB-ECCA-44A5-9C47-9313AA174BA3. The page was last modified 29 May 2026.
