Experience Risør
in winter
Risør offers unique experiences and activities all year round – and winter is no exception.
It's happening in Risør! 🎷🎸
🗓 The event calendar can be found further down the page.
Although the town is best known for its summer idyll, it has a lot to offer in the quiet winter months. Here are some of the best things to experience in Risør when the cold sets in.
Risør Sea bathing and winter swimming
For the adventurous, Risør Havbad is a must. The combination of ice bathing and a hot sauna provides a unique experience that provides both energy and well-being. If you don't dare to swim, you can relax inside and enjoy the view of the ocean.
Everything that is good for the body, soul - and taste buds
After you've challenged your body with an ice bath and found peace of mind in the sauna, it's time to pamper your taste buds at one of the city's excellent restaurants.
Rådhusgata Spiseri and Promenaden are among those that stay open throughout the winter and offer delicately presented food with seasonal menus.

Enjoy the best shellfish of winter
Did you know that winter is peak season for shellfish? At Risør Fiskemottak you can secure fresh shrimp, crabs and other top-quality seafood. Take a shellfish platter home with you, or enjoy a great meal in one of the city's restaurants.
Intimate concerts on the beach
Stranden Café in Risør has become known for its intimate Saturday concerts, and this winter you can look forward to artists such as Thom Hell and "The Bills".
The organizer is Arve Bøe, a renowned guitarist and musician from Bergen, who has now made Risør his home. With a long career in the Norwegian music industry, he has an impressive network, which he uses to bring talented artists to small-scale concerts at Stranden. You won't get any closer to talent!

If safety is not found at home or out there, where do you go?
"Word for blood" is a true story, an inside report from the little sister of Sweden's most dangerous gang leader. It is a painful and honest story about being human and female and ending up in the middle of a deadly gang showdown - in a world where adults are not present. Faysa's closest friends and family members are on opposite sides of the gang war. She no longer has a record of how many she has lost. Now she tells her story.
The National Theatre and the Norwegian Theatre are creating a play based on Faysa Idle's hotly-anticipated book, "A Word for Blood". Her story concerns us all, regardless of who we are or where we live. Perhaps Faysa's story can open up conversations about how we can create a society where we take better care of each other?
--Said about the book:
"Faysa Idle tells her story powerfully and honestly
Business News
"A story that tears at the heart and gives you chills"
Gyldendal Norwegian Publishing House
--Performance length: 1 hour 20 minutes (no intermission).
