The 15th annual New York City Norwegian Festival 2009 will take place on Saturday October 3 in Central Park in New York. Last year, over 7000 runners took part in the Norway Run and Grete’s Great Gallop, while thousands more enjoyed Norwegian music, food and entertainment in the festival area.
The Norwegian Festival and Norway Run is a great way to qualify for the New York Marathon and experience Central Park and the best of Norwegian music, food and culture.
One lucky winner of the Norwegian Festival Sweepstakes will receive a trip for two to Tromsø, run the Midnight Sun Marathon June 19, 2010, and stay three nights at the Clarion Bryggen Hotel (from June 17-20, 2010), the newest hotel in Tromsø - with an top roof jacuzzi with splendid view to mainland, Tromsø Bridge, The Arctic Cathedral and Mount Tromsdalstinden.
