Culture Night is an international concept that began in Lund in Sweden in 1984. Copenhagen was inspired by Lund, and held its first cultural night in 1993. Since then, the concept of Culture Night has spread through Europe and the world. Berlin has a "Long Night of Museums", Paris has "Nuit Blanche", and Rome has his "Notte Bianca". Oslo's Kulturnatt is held in September every year. Opening hours at cultural institutions are extended through the evening and night, and there are unique music, theatre, art, literature and film events throughout the city.
This year the event takes place on Friday, September 18th, 2009. A full program of events can be found at http://kalender.oslokulturnatt.no/
