Notodden Blues Festival returns 5–8 August 2027. The organisers announced the dates after the 2026 festival and have already opened Early Bird festival-pass and camping sales. The 2027 artist programme and individual concert details are not yet confirmed; use the official festival website for current announcements and tickets.
Plan a festival stay in Notodden
The festival uses venues around central Notodden, so check the location and admission terms for each show before planning your days. Earlier editions have featured both large concerts and smaller club performances. Do not assume a past event or artist will return in 2027. For confirmed 2027 dates, see the organiser’s announcement; the Early Bird update explains which passes and camping options are already on sale.
Where to stay
A multi-day festival can make a shared base useful for families and friends. Telemark Guesthouse is a historic holiday home near Ulefoss in Mid-Telemark, with four bedrooms, two bathrooms and room for up to 15 guests. It is an alternative to staying in Notodden itself, especially if your group wants a kitchen and common space between concerts. The drive to central Notodden is roughly 35–40 minutes in ordinary traffic; allow extra time during the festival and arrange a safe return after evening shows.
Practical checklist
- Confirm your concert venue, start time and ticket conditions with the organiser.
- Check current transport, parking and accessibility information before travel.
- Look at accommodation availability for the whole festival period, not just one evening.
Telemark Guesthouse is not the festival organiser. Programme, artists, tickets and times may change; verify them on the official festival website before booking travel or accommodation.
