Meetings in Stavanger
Stavanger is known as the Oil Capital of Norway, which will bring many to think of a town with an industrial architecture – but on the contrary, Stavanger is a lovely town with a lovely harbour area and the charming old town “Gamle Stavanger”, the oldest residential area with some 150 wooden houses that have been carefully restored.
The Stavanger region offers countless great possibilities for conferences with a total of 271 meeting rooms, including Norway’s largest conference hall. Exceptional facilities in urban surroundings as well as tranquillity of intimate settings in the midst of magnificent scenery characterize your meeting in the Stavanger area.
Looking for that special added value to your meeting? The bay of Stavanger is protected from the North Sea, and has a beautiful archipelago with a number of charming islands and fjords. Here we host a broad selection of activities, the most popular being fjord sightseeing to the Lysefjord which may feature a barbeque at Helleren with its sandy beach fitted for bathing, but also other games and activities can be arranged here.
Lysefjord is probably better known as the location of the Pulpit Rock, which towers an awesome 600 meters above the fjord.
The discovery of oil in the North Sea led to Stavangers importance as the Oil Capital of Norway and a large number of International companies have got their offices in town and the international presence has lead to a wide variety of restaurants and a very vibrant nightlife!
