Event Management gives you hands-on experience with festivals and events. Explore creativity, teamwork, and leadership while creating magical moments for others.

Event Management is for you who are curious about events, festivals, and cultural life.
Through theory and hands-on work, you will gain insight into how festivals are planned, financed, built, and executed. You will learn about the different tasks behind a cultural event and become familiar with what it takes to organize a festival, event, or concert.

We learn from the best in the industry, including Eirik Brevik – CEO of the Pstereo Festival in Trondheim. He has extensive experience from Trondheim Calling, Festningenfestivalen, and as the founder of Heimfestivalen in Fosen.

The festival industry has evolved significantly, and there is a strong demand for people who can plan, lead, and execute cultural events. The skills you gain are also valuable in other creative industries such as theatre, art, film, concerts, and events. Whether you dream of becoming a producer, communications advisor, or festival director, this course provides a solid foundation to build on.

With us, you don’t just talk about festivals – you become part of the crew. From idea and planning to setup, execution, and evaluation, you will gain experience, contacts, and confidence to step into the festival world – whether you want to start something of your own or contribute to a larger project.

Trondheimsfjord – Norway’s rawest folkhighschool –  a the year that challenges you!

This is the school for you who want to feel the pulse and push boundaries – in your own way. Choose your course and get a year filled with action, knowledge and adventures that stay with you for life. Some courses give you a taste of Norway’s toughest professions, focusing on training, emergency response, and demanding scenarios. Others focus on speed, running, event planning, or simply living life at your own pace – with travels, cultures, and memories to last a lifetime.

The school is beautifully located by the fjord, surrounded by forest and fields, just 20 minutes from Trondheim. Here, the calm of nature meets the energy of the city, combined with activities ranging from adrenaline on the motorsport track and physical challenges to friendship, creativity, and shared adventures.

Travel is part of the package. Each course has its own goals for the travels– from sun and training in Lanzarote to cultural encounters in Singapore or high-energy action in Florida. Travel is optional and in some cases you can choose between several study trips. Everyone joins in on the big school trip to Greece at the end of the year, a highlight where the whole school community creates friendships and memories across all the different courses.

At Trondheimsfjord, you learn with body, mind, and heart. There are challenges for the bold, space for the cautious, and an environment that pushes you, supports you, and makes the year unforgettable.
