Last year, TEDxArendal filled Arendal kulturhus to the brim. 700 guests, 90 volunteers, and 20 speakers experienced a 12-hour marathon event – inspiring, engaging and proud. Our guests were served dinner at thirteen of the city’s restaurants, sampled locally produced food, and were entertained by local artists.

The yearly event is made possible by our dedicated volunteers and equally dedicated partners. Under the current circumstances, we owe these amazing people – and our brilliant speakers – a decision in regards to this year’s event.

Right now, the uncertainties surrounding the implementation of an event this size are overwhelming. As such, we do not consider it appropriate to continue planning and preparing a TEDxArendal event for 2020.

The new date for TEDxArendal is November 5, 2021. Until then, stay safe and well!
