  1. Agder Theater

    One of the more unusual cultural experiences in Grimstad is run by Kristiansand-based Agder Theater, which performs in an old quarry up to six days a week in summer. After a hiatus in 2007 the troupe was due to return to performing in 2008; the tourist office has a programme of upcoming performances. The quarry, 4km north of town, became infamous during WWII when red granite blocks for Hitler’s ‘Victory Monument’ were taken from here; the monument was, of course, never built.

  2. Café Galleri

    The centre of Grimstad’s nightlife has DJs, jam sessions and a crowd that seems to spring from Grimstad’s woodwork on the most unlikely of nights.
