Midnattsrocken is a festival rich in tradition, first arranged in 1984. It takes place every year on the very top of Norway, just outside the village of Lakselv. The festival area is beautifully located innermost in the Porsanger fjord, only some 190 km from the famous North Cape plateau. The Midnattsrocken festival was first arranged during the summer of 1984. Since then many great artists both domestic and international have performed on the stage at Brennelvneset, located innermost in the Porsanger fjord in the county of Finnmark. The festival has evolved into the largest outdoor music festival in the counties of Finnmark and Northern Troms. Midnattsrocken is an outdoor music festival. The festival area is located just outside the village of Lakselv, in the very heart of Finnmark (Norway’s northernmost county). Surrounded by a beach, a river, mountains and the Porsanger fjord, we like to call it the most exotic festival area in the world. The audience record for Midnattsrocken is over 11.000 (2009). This is almost 15 percent of Finnmark’s total population. Midnattsrocken has its own festival camp. ==History== Since the very beginning in 1984 famous artists such as N.E.R.D (2010), Kent (2010), Dum Dum Boys (2010), Queensrÿche (2010), D.A.D (2010), Deep Purple, Twisted Sister, CC Cowboys, Turboneger, Imperiet, Kim Larsen, Wannskræk (Dum Dum Boys), Mari Boine, Fish, Kamelot, Åge Aleksandersen, Postgirobygget, Briskeby and more have all taken part in The Midnattsrocken festival and given the population in this remote part of the country great musical experiences. In the 80’s Midnattsrocken was one of the largest outdoor music festivals throughout the country. The festival was arranged for the first time during the summer of 1984. Due to large deficits the 1989 festival marked the end of the Midnattsrocken festivals. In 2001 Midnattsrocken was reintroduced. Since then it has been arranged every year (except 2002) in Brennelvneset innermost in the Porsanger Fjord. The new initiators had to reflect well upon the whole concept. As a result a festival camp was introduced. This led to an increase in the number of visitors. Once again the Midnattsrocken festival plays an important role among the festivals in the northern part of Norway. It is now the largest outdoor music festival in the counties of Finnmark and Northern Troms. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Midnattsrocken」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
