Conventions

With seven convention centres that double as hotels, Tromso can accommodate international conferences big and small. Most of the centres are close to the city centre for convenient exploration in down time. The Radisson Blu Hotel Tromso holds up to 650 patrons in the theatre and has 259 guest rooms. For a smaller gathering, the Scandic Tromso holds up to 600 patrons and holds 147 guest rooms. A three-minute walk from the Scandic Tromso is the Polarhallen convention centre that holds up to 3600 people.

Dining

Aunegården was a butcher shop but currently has world renowned cakes as well as bacalao, too. For a European flair visit De 4 Roser and enjoy a coffee with a hearty lunch. With an “extreme sports” theme, Flyt is an experience for the adventurous diner. It has frozen beer glasses so your brew is refreshing from start to finish as well as homemade burgers to keep a belly warm.

Lastly, Storgata is the main street for shopping with a bookstore (Bokhuset Libris), a candy store (Taras), and a shabby-chic Norweigean shop (Britt's Boutique).
