The museum's dance group has a long-standing tradition of performing and has been a fixture at the open-air museum for over 70 years.

Dancers of all ages (approx. 6–30 years) take to the stage in beautiful Setesdal costumes, accompanied by one or more of the fantastic folk musicians associated with the group.

The repertoire consists primarily of Norwegian folk dances in the categories of figure dances (turdans), regional dances (bygdedans), and old-time dances (gammaldans), as well as international dances that have been part of the group's performances for many years.

  • Where: The Open-air Theatre (Friluftsteateret) at Norsk Folkemuseum
  • The dance performances are included with a standard museum entrance ticket.
