Discover Funding Opportunities

This grant program aims to stimulate adult amateurs throughout Norway to participate in voluntary activities within theater and scenic dance. The program supports amateur theater groups with funding for various costs related to their activities. Amateur theater in this context includes various performative art forms such as revue, scenic dance (hip-hop, ballet, belly dance), musical theater, improv, new circus, and similar forms, as well as role-playing/LARP. Each group can apply for up to 30,000 Norwegian kroner per application round. The program is administered by the Norwegian Arts Council (Kulturdirektoratet) and funded by gaming revenue. Applications are evaluated with the principle that all groups meeting the requirements generally receive funding, though amounts may be adjusted based on available funds in each round.
