On May 1, musicians from all over Norway, including guests from Poland, will form a wonderful orchestra and meet at the unique "Thanks Jimi Festival". This extraordinary musical event unites young and adult musicians, local bands, professionals and amateurs into one unique festival orchestra.
"Thanks Jimi Festival" in Norway for the 14th time
What sets this festival apart from others? It is a fact that Norwegian youth will perform not only songs by their idols, such as Jimi Hendrix, Marius Müller, Dum Dum Boys or Led Zeppelin, but also Polish hits, including Perfekt, Tadeusz Nalepa and many other artists. The stage will belong to everyone - from beginners to experienced musicians. We also know that our Polish musicians will take part in the festival, many of them not for the first time.
