Concerts in Åspaviljongen

Experience Åspaviljongen

Åspaviljongen, nestled within the scenic Marienlyst Park in Drammen, Norway, boasts a rich history dating back to 1913. Originally constructed as a traditional bandstand for public concerts and social gatherings, it underwent significant renovation and modernization in 2018-2019, transforming it into a vibrant, year-round music venue. The architecture blends historical charm with contemporary design, featuring a striking glass enclosure that protects performers and audiences from the elements while maintaining an open-air feel.

While historically hosting brass bands and local choirs, Åspaviljongen now caters to a diverse range of genres including jazz, blues, folk, indie, and emerging Norwegian artists. It's become a key location for the annual Drammen Jazz Festival and frequently hosts intimate concerts and cultural events.

Unique features include its stunning park setting offering picturesque views of the Drammenselva river, a fully licensed bar serving local beverages, and flexible seating arrangements accommodating both standing and seated audiences.
