Vikingegarden Maurenga in Nannestad, 2 km from Gardermoen airport, offers a longhouse for up to 140 guests, a meeting room for 5 to 40 people, and a farmyard for weddings, company parties and private events. Food, table service, activities and entertainment are arranged by the venue, in a historic setting built around Viking-inspired details.
Seminars and company events
The meeting room takes 5 to 40 people and is used by one group at a time, in a quiet spot surrounded by ravines. The venue lists wireless internet, a projector and a sound system among its meeting facilities. A lunch buffet with home-cooked food is served, and coffee, tea, ice water and fruit are available all day, with cake or bread rolls once during the day.
For a larger company gathering, the Langhuset can be set for up to 140 guests. The menu of the venue also lists Christmas table events, summer parties and company events, with outdoor activities, indoor activities and entertainment pages for groups that want a program beyond the meeting itself.
The location suits teams who fly in: the site is 2 km from Gardermoen, so a one-day meeting can be built around arrival and departure times.
Weddings and receptions
Couples have celebrated at Maurenga since midsummer 2001. Some hold the ceremony at the wedding spot on the farmyard, surrounded by landscape. For the feast, white-scrubbed long tables are dressed with flowers and many candles, and the couple sits in high seats of honor. Each wedding is planned with the couple and adapted to their wishes. The venue also offers entertainment for the evening.
Private events
The Langhuset hosts confirmations, anniversaries, weddings and other private gatherings all year round. Open fireplaces, torches and oil lamps create the lighting, and the building, interior and service carry Viking-inspired details. The team handles the table setting, the food and the serving staff, who wear period costumes. Activities for all ages can be added during the evening.
