Examples include

‍

We prefer that the events and activities are open, but you are welcome to apply for closed events as well. Exceptions can be made.

RELÆXT experiences can use the rental agreement

RELÆXT is based on ‘Relaxed Performance’ – an offering that has been developed and available since the early 1990s in several British theaters. RELÆXT experiences make cultural events more accessible for everyone, especially those who find it challenging to participate in regular performances and concerts.

At Sentralen, we follow the Guidelines for RELÆXT performances and experiences when producing RELÆXT events. We are happy to assist you in adapting events to become RELÆXT according to the guidelines.

About Sentralen MINT 

Sentralen MINT is a rental scheme funded by Sparebankstiftelsen DnB. Activities and events that use the rental scheme must promote diversity, inclusion, and belonging.

Through the scheme, we can offer free venue rental, and cover costs for rigging, technical equipment, technicians, and in some cases, hosting. Our goal with the rental scheme is to facilitate a variety of public events that reflect the diversity of society at Sentralen.

We want Sentralen to be a place with a low threshold for both participating in and organizing events. We believe that diversity among people is invaluable for cultural life and social innovation.

Since the establishment of the rental scheme, Sentralen MINT has supported public events such as theater, festivals, free dance, shows, art exhibitions, club events, fashion shows, and concerts.
