The annual Bergen International Literary Festival for non-fiction and fiction (LitFestBergen), held for the first time in 2019, presents international and Norwegian literature.
LitFestBergen is characterised by literary, linguistic, cultural and geographic diversity. It seeks to be bold and innovative, while simultaneously being accessible to a broad audience.
Festival participants meet authors from the whole world and from Norway, and acquire insights into literary works which directly address the big and important questions of concern to us all.
Teresa Grøtan is the festival director. Read more about the administration, the artistic advisory board and the festival board here.
