Jahn Teigen-utstillingen «Ikke som alle andre»

The Jahn Teigen exhibition "Ikke som alle andre" ("Unlike Anyone Else") is a permanent exhibition at Jahn Teigen Arena inside Quality Hotel Tønsberg. Discover the life and career of one of Norway's best-known musicians through original stage costumes, instruments, records, photographs and personal belongings.

The man, the performer and his career
The exhibition is divided into three themes exploring different sides of Jahn Teigen's life. Discover costumes worn on stage, musical instruments, paintings, records and other personal objects. Photographs and films tell the story of his career and the person behind the music. For visitors who remember Teigen from concerts, television appearances and Norway's Melodi Grand Prix, the exhibition brings back familiar moments. International visitors and younger generations can discover why he remains an important figure in Norwegian popular music.
