Cultural life

Tórshavn municipality has a lot to offer culturally. We have theatres, museums, venues, cafés and restaurants, cinemas, libraries, evening schools and much more. Below we have gathered relevant links to the different venues and places as well as to the sites dedicated to guide locals and visitors to the cultural scene.

Unbeknownst to many newcomers, a considerable part of the cultural activities takes place within the many leisure associations throughout the municipality. It can, however, be difficult to find information about the many different associations. Tórshavn Municipality has therefore recently begun collecting information about the different leisure associations and made it accessible to the public through a digital register called »Felagsskráin«. You can browse the register via the link below.

If you establish a leisure association yourself or know about associations not mentioned in the register, you may submit your association to the register via the link below.

Please note that the register is currently in Faroese only, so you may need some help from a local when retrieving or submitting the relevant information.
