Norway National Day: What to Expect on 17
Norwegians turn out in great numbers on the 17 May to celebrate the anniversary of their constitution. A key moment in Norwegian history, the constitution was inspired by the US Declaration of Independence and the French revolution, and the subsequent constitutions.
Constitution Day celebrations

While each town or village organises its own celebrations, the day almost always follows a familiar format no matter where you are.

In the morning, Norwegians gather with friends or family for a lavish breakfast, often featuring a glass of champagne. It's not uncommon to see groups of people enjoying themselves on their balconies at 8am!
Typically, this is followed by a people's parade (folketog), which features local workplaces, groups and societies. As many Norwegians volunteer, it can be difficult for some people to choose who to march with!

The final march of the day is the high school graduates (russetog), often looking worse for wear as their month-long russefeiring comes to an end. Sometimes the marches are combined into just one or two.

Oslo

Many eyes tend to fall on the capital city during the morning. NRK covers events all over the country, but Oslo falls into focus once the Royal Family comes out to wave at the children's parade before lunchtime.

The day starts with wreath laying at different graveyards and statues throughout the city. Karl Johans gate is the location for the children's parade, before attention turns to a traditional concert in the grounds of Akershus Fortress.
The parade is free to watch but getting there early is a must to secure a good view. Tickets are required to enter the best spots near the palace. These are free but must be reserved in advance.

Although these are the main events in the capital, smaller events take place all over the city. The various districts of Oslo all organise specific events as do other groups and individual restaurants. For more information, check out the dedicated webpages at Oslo Kommune.
