Nordic Light Festival celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2026 with a landmark edition under the theme ´Memento Vivere´ Remember to Live - ´Husk At Du Lever!´

Set in the beautiful coastal city of Kristiansund, this special anniversary festival brings together world-class photography, powerful storytelling, inspiring talks, exhibitions, conversations, and cultural experiences that honor both the legacy of the festival and the living power of the image.

For two decades, Nordic Light has welcomed some of the most respected names in photography and visual culture, creating unforgettable encounters between artists, audiences, and ideas. In 2026, the festival returns with renewed energy, celebrating 20 years of light, humanity, creativity, and connection.

Memento Vivere is an invitation to pause, to reflect, and to truly live - through art, through presence, and through the shared experience of seeing the world with fresh eyes.
