Norway's Crown Prince and Crown Princess Attended Filmparken’s 90th Anniversary

On Thursday, September 4, 2025, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway took part in the celebration of Filmparken’s 90th anniversary. On the occasion of the jubilee, “Studio B” at Filmparken in Jar, Bærum, was renamed “Studio Liv Ullmann.” Actress Liv Ullmann, one of the great stars of Norwegian film history, was present at the ceremony. The first film produced in Studio B at Filmparken was Ingmar Bergman’s Autumn Sonata, in which Liv Ullmann played one of the leading roles.

Filmparken in Jar was established in 1935 and has been closely intertwined with the history of Norwegian cinema ever since. The first film shot there was Tancred Ibsen’s You Promised Me Your Wife (Du har lovet meg din kone) in 1935, and since then a large number of films and series have been produced at the site. To this day, Filmparken offers facilities for all types of film, photography, and television productions. In 2024, Filmparken was recognized by the European Film Academy as a European cultural treasure.
