Halloween may have roots in ancient Celtic festivals, but Norway, and especially Bergen, has embraced this festivity with open arms. What started as a small celebration in Norway has blossomed into a full-fledged event featuring costume parties, themed restaurants, and exclusive Halloween menus across Bergen.
A Look at Halloween’s Journey to Norway
Halloween, rooted in the Celtic festival Samhain, was brought to the U.S. in the 19th century and transformed into the pumpkin-filled holiday we know today. Norway only adopted Halloween traditions in recent decades, yet it’s quickly become a favorite. In cities like Bergen, Halloween events and activities now range from haunted houses to spooky city tours and themed feasts.
