Barnivalen Friday
Barnivalen is Kongsberg Jazzfestival's own children's festival that takes place every day in Magasinparken. The program includes concerts, workshops and many fun activities for children of all ages.

At Barnivalen on Friday you can experience, among other things:
Studio 3 Dance show kl. 11: 30
Studio 3, Kongsberg's award-winning dance studio, comes and holds a dance show in the park. Here you can see talented dancers and impressive moves!
Sound safari At 12:15 and 13:45
Join the musicians Simen and Mikkel on a sound safari! Here you can try different instruments, sing and have fun with music. Suitable for children of all ages.
Brageteatret: Far, Far Away At 12:30 and 14:00
- a suitably scary theater performance
With inspiration taken from Theodor Kittelsen's drawings, the Brage Theater invites you to an adventurous performance during the Children's Festival. "Langt, lang borte" is based on Kittelsen's most famous motif, The Key. But also various forest trolls and other beings can take part in this musical performance. The hiker Kristine Haugland and the player Joseph Angyal have a magical world hidden in their backpack, and an instrument that no one has seen before! Pass for alle fra 3 år.
Rasmus and the World's Best Band Kl. 13: 00
Rasmus og Verdens Beste Band is a critically acclaimed and award-winning band from Trondheim. The band has sold well over 20 children's records, toured Norway criss-cross, made lots of children's music for NRK SUPER, its own musical on Trøndelag Teater's main stage and modern children's hits such as "Puppan te pappa" and "Kosinus-sangen". Recently, the band also received the Spellemann prize in the category "children's music". There is guaranteed to be a great atmosphere in the park when Rasmus and the guys will put on a show!
The Second Line Allstars Kl. 14: 30
In this performance, the band takes the audience on a musical and humorous journey from Negro Spirituals all the way to Pharrell Williams, with a focus on playfulness, song and dance, where everyone gets to join in. The children actively participate in the performance, through singing, playing, dancing and clapping. In this concert, the audience gets to experience real and spontaneous musical joy - and see that jazz is available to everyone!
Vocal workshop with Sigrid Kl. 15: 15
Join us in a world of sounds! What makes us make sound, and how can we create music together, in the present? Sigrid Strand Stiberg has a bachelor's degree in musicology from the University of Oslo, and has sung in the vocal ensemble Oslo 14 for several years. Who said our voices can only be used for singing? We can make a whole band out of voices! Through attitude, cool beats and guitar solos, we improvise the coolest rock concert ever.
Greenhouse Workshop 11:00-16:00
Drivhuset music workshop presents a music workshop tent where the participants can unfold themselves on three different instrument groups, each with their own instructor, and also join in when all the small groups play together as a big band. Come and try electro, percussion and strings with Isak Anderssen, Ulrik Ibsen Thorsrud and Jon Halvor Bjørnseth!
