Bergen's October Event

By Terri Mapes, About.com

The Bergen Art Festival (short "BergArt") is a large annual fall event in the Norwegian town of Bergen.

Each year in mid-October, BergArt offers visitors lots of contemporary art and entertainment and the program includes live music of several genres, film showings, and different dance and theater performances.

The Bergen Art Festival in Norway consists of several parts: the music festival with great concerts, a literature festival for authors and publishers, and FLAZZ, a jazz-themed festival with star performers. Then, there is also BIFF (short for Bergen International Film Festival) in which visitors can watch films from all over the world.

Also take a look at the other annual events in Norway, such as the Bergen Rain Festival in early October!
