kilden performing arts centre

We went to see the Kilden on a Saturday night and it was certainly full of life! We started by going to see it from the pier from the other side and there is the best opportunity to get a good picture of it. We then went the next day to see it in the daylight and it was beautiful then as well. On the other side of the Kilden there's a lot of construction going on right now so that side isn't as nice. I also recommend going in and taking a short walk around the "lobby," it's nice.

The location is wonderful and the building curves ,such as the roof, the glass side of the building are amazing. The acoustic in the concert hall wonderful.

Kilden is a cool building situated on the sea shore where the cruiseships come in to Kristiansand. Enjoy the nice architecture and peek inside for no cost.

Original architecture, very good for concerts, opera and theatre. Nice little restaurant. Visit the place when it's a concert, KSO is a very good orchestra :)

We were taken by our cousins for a behind-the-scenes tour of Kilden. Amazing architecture and fabulous acoustics. The building is its own art! I am eager to attend a function here. We followed up our tour with lunch at the restaurant inside. Lovely meal in light, airy space overlooking the port.

Scandinavia's newest opera, concert and theatre building - multi function cultural centre in Kristiansand, the capital of the Norwegian riviera. Everything 5 Star ++, except for the restaurant, where both the menu and furniture is a bit too minimalistic to my liking, but food and service is good. Stunning architecture and great location by the sea, just need to cover the view to the container port near by - what about some nicely decorated fences/walls on the southeast side of the port ??

This march I attendet my fourth show at "Kilden". Great building, a variety of shows, spectacular location and in the middle of the Harbour area of Kristiansand. There are also a great variety of restaurants in the area. Got no ticket for a show? Head down to "fiskebrygga", gaze at the beautiful "Kilden", eat local cuisine and watch the boats roll by!

I went to see a piece that was part theatre, part concert. The sound is so good and even though the view could have been better, much due to a clumsy positioning of the mixing board, the experience was a very good one.Looking forwards to my next visit.

Far too expensive for a little town like Kristiansand. Multiple scenes for diferent purposes. Philharmonic hall with extraordinaire acoustics.

A must see in Kristiansand. Close to the Fishmarked and a good selection of restaurants..

Hadde guidet omvisning med en god guide som fortalte mye nyttig om kulturhuset. Et kjempeflott bygg.

Kilden som bygg er en superattraksjon i seg selv. Den har tre saler med opera, teater og konsertsal.Var der 6.12.13 på julekonsert. For en konsertsal,for en lyd og akustikk. Vanvittig bra.Sammen med operaen i Oslo er det landets to desidert beste kulturbygg både i funksjon og design.

Tolle Architektur und klasse Akustik. Ich hatte ein Ticket für die Oper "Carmen". Das Ensemble hat mit vollem Einsatz gespielt und gesungen und der Enthusiasmus ist aufs Publikum übergesprungen.

Gratulerer til alle sørlendinger med dette flotte konserthuset. Vi så kaizers orchestra i kilden, en fin opplevelse. Arkitekturen på utsiden er enestående, og ligger fantastisk til langs sjøkanten. På innsiden likte vi at det var flere serveringssteder. Trekk for litt trykkende tak og enkle tepper på gulvene og i trappene. Selve konsertsalen er upåklagelig.

har vært på Kilden ved flere anledninger, men det artigste var vel å gå på Hakkebakkeskogen med små barnebarn, og se hvordan de levde seg inn i forestillingen, Et flott hus som rommer mye. vel koster det mye, men mye kommer også tilbake. Vi kommer garantert igjen.Det eneste som irriterer meg er de sterke lysene i gulvet som stadig du må unngå når man mingler i vestibylen.
