About Bergen Shipping Dinner

The Bergen Shipping Dinner, organized in collaboration between the Bergen Shipbroker Association and the Bergen Shipowners’ Association, has become a marquee occasion since its inception in 2003. Held every two years in what we proudly believe is Norway’s most beautiful city, the two-day event gathers around 1400 guests from the international maritime industry.

Beyond its sheer size, Bergen Shipping Dinner has evolved into one of Norway’s foremost maritime gatherings and is today an essential platform for information sharing, networking and collaboration between the maritime cluster members, customers and partners.

By invitation only

Invitations to the Bergen Shipping Dinner are extended by the associations’ member companies. The main highlight is the grand dinner held at the Grieghallen venue, but invited guests can also enjoy a thoughtfully crafted range of activities and seminars during the two-day experience. The individual member companies also organize personalized events with their guests, fostering one-on-one interactions and strengthening business relationships.

History
