Practical information

Practical info for exhibitors

Everything you need to know to plan and carry out your participation at HavExpo 2026.

Prices and ordering

HavExpo is held in the sports halls of Straume Sports Park — large, open spaces that provide good opportunities regardless of location. For 2026, the registration area will be moved to Hall C, ensuring a natural flow of visitors through all the halls.

Some people want to stand as close to the entrance as possible to show off their news to as many people as possible. Others prefer a quieter spot that facilitates good conversations. We will help you find the location that suits you best.

Hotels and accommodation

HavExpo has had a large block of rooms set aside for visitors and exhibitors. This block has now expired. Please contact us if you have any problems with rooms and we will do everything we can to help. Regarding the ongoing strike, the hotels are still open within the applicable limits. We are monitoring the situation from day to day, and will share information on this page and in other media if the situation changes. So far, things are looking good in terms of the hotels being able to stay open.

Exhibition area

Straume Idrettspark is located in Straume on Sotra and consists of 3 halls:
Hall A – Football Hall 7,900 sq m

Hall D – Gymnasium 7,500 sq m

Hall A:

Halls B and C:

Hall D:
Gymnasium 7,500 sq m

The area has been used for four annual trade fairs since 2014: OTD (the oil fair), Norway's largest car fair, Dra til Sjøs and Boligmessen. The trade fair area is compact, and the entire exhibitor area is divided into only 2 large halls. This gives both exhibitors and visitors a good overview and easy navigation without long aisles and corridors.

The large space by Hall A is used for both the exhibition area and catering - and on a sunny day it's like sitting by the sea and enjoying life. If we get a bit of moisture in the air, we just move under one of the large serving tents.

In 2026, we will move registration outside Hall C.

Map of the exhibition halls

View the hall maps before your visit to get a better feel for the exhibition area. The maps make it easier to plan your day, find exhibitors, meeting places and registration, and give both visitors and exhibitors a quick overview of the halls.

Picture from a taxi

It's easy to get to HavExpo. We have set up free shuttle buses from Bergen Airport Flesland and Bergen city center. The shuttle buses are free and will take you right to the door.

All available space in the area is used for trade fair operations, so there are no parking spaces in the area. We refer to the Kystbygarasjen at Sartor Senter, and set up a free shuttle bus also on rigging day Sunday (11:00 – 18:00) and Monday (10:00 – 19:00). There are of course buses on trade fair days.
