Swing'It!

Swing it takes the audience on a journey 100 years back in time and across the Atlantic to 1920s New Orleans. They play catchy and entertaining Dixieland, with humor, small jokes, three buckets of charm and an out-of-tune banjo – served with straw hats, bow ties and lots of fun playing.

Turbo troll

The joy of music bubbles over when Turbotroll invites you to a party! When the trolls want to "Dance, dance, dance" it's hard not to get carried away!

For over ten years, the mischievous quartet has entertained young and old all over the country with their exuberant musical performances. Chocolate, toe-tapping, ghosts and twinkling shoes are obvious ingredients when they invite you to dance.

Turbotroll consists of the characters Føzz, Rumle and two “tickling bodies” who play everything from bass and drums to garden hoses. Together they make a great group who are not afraid to challenge themselves. Melodies and lyrics are written on children's terms. Who invented the inner voice? What's the deal with orange in chocolate?

The Trolls also have their own tribute to all the world's stuffed animals. This should be fun to sing along to! There's a guaranteed sing-along with the song "Tåfis" which has over 1 million plays on Spotify alone.

The concert is very interactive, so anything can happen here!

Suitable for children from 3-8 years, but music can quickly entice the child in larger bodies too.

Rumble: Tone Rekdal Sperre
Born: Christin Bastiansen
The Tickling Bodies: Geir Kristian Breivik and Ole Morten Sommer

Remember: All Barnival concerts are free and take place in Festivalgata!
