Tips Before You Go
If you’re visiting Grieg Hall for an orchestral performance or a ballet, then do remember to dress to the nines. People here take their ballets and orchestras very seriously, and dressing smartly is just one way they demonstrate their passion. Don’t take photographs or videos during the performances either, as that not only distracts the performers (assuming your flash is on), but it is also generally frowned upon as a faux pas.
