Atlanterhavsparken are incredibly proud to be part of the Ålesund Seafood Festival! 🎉 Yesterday we had the pleasure of hosting when Ålesund Sentrumsforening opened the festival here in the park! For the kick-off, our own chef, Ole, had prepared a feast for the taste buds: poke bowls with trout from Hofseth, salmon from Mowi and halibut from Nordic Halibut 🐟🍴 Throughout the day, engaging lectures and political debates were held on important topics such as fisheries, aquaculture and sustainable development, arranged by Sentrumsforeningen and Næringsforeningen 🌍 As a fun ending, Ole surprised everyone with a cooking competition between politicians! There they had 15 minutes to make the best trout burger – in the end, it was State Secretary for the Ministry of Fisheries and Trade Even Sagebakken who came out on top 🍔👩🏽‍🍳 Thank you very much for visiting and have a great day 💙 ENG: Atlanterhavsparken is incredibly proud to be a part of the Ålesund Seafood Festival! 🎉 Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting when the Ålesund City Center Association kicked off the festival here in the park!

Last week was full of exciting highlights in Atlanterhavsparken 🌊🐟 💙 We had the honor of hosting the official opening of the Ålesund Seafood Festival! 🎉🐟 A fantastic day, and as a fun ending we surprised with a cooking competition between politicians Geir Inge Lien (SP), Anne Marie Fiksdal (FrP), Monica Molvær (Høyre), and State Secretary Even Sagebakken (Ap)!

On Friday, we also had the pleasure of welcoming 50 kindergarten children! 🐟✨ 💙 Marthe, who runs "Men with fish on Tinder", took a deeper look at what really makes fish so cool. Together, she and Lars investigated why so many men choose to post fish pictures on Tinder - an entertaining and educational day! 🐠😄 💙 Joakim and Cathrin were in Bodø for the Nordic Travel Workshop, where they met tour operators from all over the world, and made important contacts and collaboration opportunities. We have an exciting time ahead! 🌍✈️ 💙 Heidi and Trond have been on a trip to Tromsø for the annual meeting of the Science Center Association together with the 12 other regional science centers in Norway.
