Norbergfestival is Europe's premier festival for electronic music and this year we celebrate it's 10 year anniversary! Ten years ago founder Michael "Østerz" Christiansen and friends took the bold step to start a music festival in the abandoned mine area in NorbergNorberg.

This year the event takes place on July 30, 31 and August 1. The lineup looks very promising and there are even more artists in the pipeline.

We also have a new web site online this year. The site makes it both easier for you to find information and for us to publish news more frequently. There are RSS feeds so you can easily get the latest news delivered to your digital doorstep. (The site runs on the open source CMS JoomlaJoomla.)

We look forward to seeing you all in Norberg in July!

The Mimer building is a pithead frame for the extraction of iron ore. Operational between 1957 and 1981 when mining closed down for good. Today the pithead frame serves as an exciting stage for various cultural events, amongst others an electronic music festival – our beloved Norbergfestival.
