History and setting
Ole Bull Scene opened in 2005, founded by Sølvi Rolland. It presents itself as Bergen's largest private stage for revue, theatre and music, with comedy, concerts and revue throughout the year. The building brings a hotel, two restaurants, two stages and a nightclub together under one roof, so a group can move from a presentation to dinner and a show without leaving the building.
