By foot
Stretch your legs! At the very least, take the last stretch to the festival area on foot. In addition to the festival fun this weekend we can promise hustle and bustle and streets that are closed off to vehicles.
Entrance to the festival area
Access to festival area 1 is at the intersections of Kragsgt / Torvet, Havnegt / Torvet, Strandgata by Øysang / Brygga Restaurant. Access to festival area 2 is near Dampskipsbryggen. The city’s shops, night spots and other businesses can be reached without a festival pass.
Boats to Stangholmen during the festival:
All Festival participants ride for free on Agnes out to Stangholmen during the festival. From Stangholmen one can see the “Regatta Machines” in full sail out on the open sea. Agnes goes from Hukken by the police station in Risør’s center with daily departures after 12 noon every thirty minutes. The boat trip takes about 15 minutes.
