Sagastad is proud to announce that the much anticipated next sea launch of the Myklebust ship will be held during April 2025.
The event will take place from April 23rd to April 30th. The program can be found below.
We are now releasing the first 50 early bird seats for the public. The next tickets will drop during January 2025.
Each early bird seat costs NOK 3000. The ticket includes a seat on the ship for a voyage that lasts approximately 2.5 hours. You also gain access to the event area in and outside of Sagastad, and the required rowing training with smaller vessels prior to the actual voyage.
There will be plenty of photo opportunities and lots of additional activities taking place in and around Sagastad during the launch.
