SUMMARY:Syttende Mai Festival\, Stoughton
DESCRIPTION:Stoughton’s Syttende Mai festival is a weekend-long celebration of Norwegian heritage featuring fun activities and cultural experiences for the whole family. Check out three days of parades\, amazing food and drink\, arts and music\, athletic competitions\, and kids’ activities steeped in centuries of Norwegian culture. From the late 1800s to the early 1900s\, Stoughton enjoyed an influx of Norwegians\, and at one time\, as many as 75 percent of its residents spoke Norwegian. These immigrants celebrated Syttende Mai unofficially\, but it became an annual\, city-wide tradition in the 1950s. \nThe city-wide festival takes place every year on the weekend closest to Norway’s May 17th Constitution Day\, also known as Syttende Mai. In 2026\, the festivities run through the weekend of May 15th through the 17th. The Arts & Crafts Fair attracts arts and crafts enthusiasts and artists who appreciate Norwegian culture and its role in the arts. The Stoughton festival features an annual juried craft fair where artisans and artists show and sell their hand-crafted works. The Norwegian art of rosemaling\, or decorative painting\, traditional Norwegian embroidery and quilts are all on display. Many artists hold public demonstrations of how they create their works\, too. It’s a great opportunity for Stoughton festival-goers to meet the artists and appreciate the art’s deep roots in traditional Norwegian culture. It includes the Arts & Craft Fair\, Hardanger Embroidery Exhibit\, the Quilt Show\, the Rosemaling Exhibit and Sale\, and Norwegian Cultural Demonstrations. It runs Saturday from 10am — 6pm and Sunday from 9am — 2pm at River Bluff Middle School Gymnasium\, Cafetorium\, and Grounds at 235 N. Forrest Street in Stoughton. \nFestival activities include: \n\nStoughton Norwegian Dancers\n20-Mile Run\, 10-Mile Run\, 17-Mile Walk\, and Lil’ Community Run\nHardanger Fiddle Performances\nNorwegian Heritage Center (Livsreise)\nLive Norwegian Art Demonstrations\nEdvard Grieg Chorus at the Stoughton Opera House\nNorse Costume Style Show\nViking Games Strongman Competition\nCraft Beer Tent\nTraditional Norwegian Delicacies\nFood Trucks\nYouth Parade (Saturday)\nNorwegian Parade (Sunday)\nCanoe Race & Portage on the Yahara River\nStoughton Village Players Theater Original Presentation\nArts & Crafts Fair\n\n \nSyttende Mai Festival Address:\nvia Stoughton Chamber of Commerce\n532 E. Main Street\nStoughton\, WI 53589\n(608) 873-7912\nWebsite \nMore details below! \n\n\n\n \n \nStoughton Norwegian Dancers\nThis dance troupe delights audiences with their intricate footwork\, athleticism\, and enthusiasm for traditional Norwegian culture. Around since 1952 and clad in traditional Norwegian costumes\, or bunad\, their dancing to music from the fjords\, and their colorful and captivating performances are in demand nationwide. You’ll be able to see the Stoughton Norwegian Dancers and their traditional folk performances every day during the three-day Syttende Mai festival. \nOther Live Performances \nWhile enjoying all the Syttende Mai sights and delicious foods\, don’t forget to experience the music\, dance\, and theater performances. Be sure to catch a Norwegian Dancer performance to experience Scandinavian folk dancing. Attend a Stoughton Village Players theatrical performance written and performed by local actors who are expert at presenting the humorous side of life in Stoughton. Be sure to seek out a Hardanger fiddle performance to see and hear these beautiful instruments up close. \nEnjoy: \n\nChorus Public House Live Music\nChrist Lutheran Church\nCraft Beer Tent Entertainment\nStoughton City Band Concert\nStoughton Opera House\nStoughton Village Players Theater\n\nCrowning the Syttende Mai Royalty\nCheck out the crowning of Syttende Mai’s event ambassadors in a tradition that spans five decades. Stoughton’s Syttende Mai royalty kick off the three-day event and declare the weekend a statewide celebration. \nThose who wear the Syttende Mai crown receive the honor for their commitment to community service and keeping the local Norwegian culture alive. Each year\, a couple learns of their nomination in September and must keep it a secret from everyone\, even friends and family\, for five months. During the Stoughton Norwegian Dancers’ February Norse Afternoon of Fun\, the new king and queen receive their crowns and join previous years’ honorees. \nAlthough their reign is symbolic\, the annual Syttende Mai King and Queen dress in traditional Norwegian clothing\, or bunad\, for the entire festival. In addition to opening the festival\, the couple attend more than 40 events over the weekend. They are the festival’s icons and serve as cultural ambassadors to visitors. Have questions about the Norwegian cultural demonstrations\, colors\, music\, foods and costumes you see? Ask this year’s king and queen (or one of our many volunteers). \nYoung people participate in the Syttende Mai royalty tradition\, too. Two local third-grade students are selected as the festival’s annual Prince and Princess and are chosen to carry on Norwegian traditions among their peers. They serve as grand marshals of the Saturday Youth Parade\, ride in the Sunday Norwegian Parade\, and start The Lil’ Run. The pair also attend the opening dinner and make other appearances throughout the Syttende Mai festival. \nAgain\, you’ll find Stoughton along U.S. 51 and Highway 138\, southeast of Madison. I-39/90 and U.S. 14 also bring you close! \n\n\n\n \n \nBack to StateTrunkTour.com
