Food & Drink

Food & Drink in Stavanger

Stavanger’s bustling fish market has had a knock-on effect with many of the city’s local restaurants as they battle for the title of the freshest food in Stavanger. The focus on local produce carries over into brewing and wine-making as you’ll be able to find many local drinks served in almost every restaurant.

Events

Events in Stavanger

Stavanger’s unique culture and natural beauty make it a fantastic setting for local events. If you want to make one of these festivals the centrepiece of your holiday we have a few suggestions:

Sesilåmi

A cross-country ski race relying on skill and athleticism to help participants conquer the gruelling slopes between Brokke in Setesdal and Sinnes in Sirdal, Sesilåmi is not for the faint of heart. If you want to see winter sports at their best then Sesilåmi is a must.

Stavanger Wine Festival

Arranged by 12 of the city’s top restaurants, the Stavanger Wine Festival is when each sommelier tries to show off the very best of the cities produce. Tastings are common during the festival and everything culminates in a wine parade visiting 8 vineyards to sample their drink and food.
