Artists, cosplay, EXPO, ESPORT, music, LAN and BYOC. Join us in Stockholm for the Nordic region's best gamer event. Here we meet content creators, watch esports tournaments (2025: OW, The Finals, CS2), go to concerts, game launches and talks based on our own interests.

It will be a social trip, we live together in hostels not far from both central Stockholm and the venue where the fair is held. We eat out together and have a lot of great experiences together. We buy access to the LAN /BYOC area. You can either bring your own equipment, or book PCs from GameEffect with which the organizer cooperates.

In 2025, Dreamhack had the OWCS World Finals, and we're excited about what top-level tournament awaits us in 2026. But good, we know it will be!

In the past, there have also been several competitions where you can play for fat prize pools in, for example, Fortnite ($25k). DreamHack is a tremendous experience, bringing the gamer environments together. The fair is full of exclusive merchandise, brings together 300 exhibitors, and several games are launching beta versions that have not been shown before.

At Dreamhack there are also many concerts and cultural events, and together we will see how much of this we manage to bring with us throughout the three days of the event.

Hvert år reiser vi på studietur for å utvide horisonten vår.

Berlin: Musikk, teknologi og historie i Europas kreative smeltedigel

Berlin er en by som aldri står stille – et av Europas viktigste sentre for musikk, teknologi og kreativ nyvinning. På studieturen får du oppleve et unikt møte mellom faglig påfyll og byens pulserende kulturliv.

Gjennom vårt samarbeid med Ableton, er vi selvfølgelig hjertelig velkommen til hovedkontoret. Her får vi en eksklusiv omvisning og innsikt i hvordan programvaren som har revolusjonert moderne musikkproduksjon utvikles. Bekjentskapene vi stifter her, er et nettverk du kan yte godt av fremover i karrieren din.

På Schneidersladen Har vi workshops i modulær og analog synthesis – en opplevelse som gir praktisk erfaring og inspirasjon til egne produksjoner og musikk. I tillegg drar vi på konserter og klubbkvelder, fra techno og elektronika til indieband og klassiske ensembler – alt som gjør Berlin til en verdensmetropol for musikk. Noen ganger hender det at vi har masterclasses med forskjellige artister og produsenter også.

For å forstå hvorfor Berlin er blitt et flaggskip for kreativ teknologi, er det viktig at vi også forstår historien. Gjennom guidet sykkeltur, museumsbesøk og byvandringer får vi oppleve byens dramatiske og mangfoldige historie på nært hold.

Samlet gir dette en studietur som både styrker den faglige utviklingen og gir en dypere forståelse for hvordan kultur, historie og teknologi former musikken vi lager i dag.

Japan: et dypdykk i kultur, kreativitet og personlig utvikling.

Der Berlin gir oss puls, teknologi, storbyliv og faglig inspirasjon - ønsker vi å skape en kontrast med reisen vår til Japan.

Dette er et land som inviterer oss til å roe ned tempoet og utforske personlig utvikling, en sjanse til å senke skuldrene i mange kulturelle møter og minnerike opplevelser.

Japan gir oss en unik kombinasjon av kultur, natur og tradisjon. Velger vi å reise til Kyoto, får vi oppleve zen-hager, eldgamle templer og tradisjonelle kunstformer i et rolig og historisk miljø. Reiser vi til Okinawa, møter vi tropiske øyer, et helt eget levesett og karate som både kulturarv og livsfilosofi. Uansett reisemål blir vi invitert inn i en kultur som setter balanse, disiplin og tilstedeværelse i sentrum.

Gjennom opplevelser som mindfulness, meditasjon, kampsport, kunst, tradisjonell musikk og kulinariske møter får du som elev sjansen til å utforske ikke bare nye omgivelser – men også deg selv.

Her handler det om å åpne opp kreativiteten, finne ro, og la deg inspirere av en kultur som i hundrevis av år har kombinert det estetiske med det spirituelle.

Japan blir et høydepunkt på skoleåret, og en opplevelse du vil ta med deg videre – både som menneske og som kreativ utøver.

We start in the capital Tokyo, where we really get to know the metropolis and the futuristic elements that this city has in it. Tokyo is known for advanced technology and is a global center for innovation. There is always something new and exciting coming out of Norway that we have never seen before. In addition to letting Japanese culture sink in, we take the time to be inspired by both theater and film.

We travel on the Shinkansen high-speed train, which is proof of Japanese high technology and an experience in itself. In the ancient capital of Kyoto, the combination of hyper-modern and historical culture is unique, with opportunities to experience Kabuki theater, anime studios, film festivals, and traditional Japanese culture.

On the plan will be a good mix of experiences: theater performances, film studios, cosplay culture, workshops in traditional theater arts, and explore temples and historical sites. How about watching a non-verbal performance by Gear Theatre Kyoto, after a meal of Japanese Sushi or Ramen? Visit a temple and end the day with a real Tea ceremony? There are temples everywhere in Kyoto. In fact, this ancient city has almost 1600 temples, so the challenge is to decide which ones to visit.

‍

Vi flyr til Auckland og reiser videre med bil. New Zealand er kjent for en variert natur, med aktive vulkaner, store klatrefelt, surfestrender og elver. Som stillehavsøy er det også et rikt dyreliv her.

• Fleredagers tur med havkajakk
• Sykkeltur
• Klatring i store klatrefelt
• Fleredagers gåtur inn i fjellene
• Rafting eller canyoning
• Byvandring
• Surfing
• Matlaging i telt
• Fridykking
• Topptur
• Kulturopplevelser

I tillegg vil det bli noen fridager hvor dere selv får planlegge innhold. Dra på strikkhopp, slapp av på stranda eller ta en tur til byen.

Japan has a rich tradition in arts and crafts. Here are some of the things we can learn more about in Kyoto:

‍

pottery: Visiting pottery workshop. Attend workshop and shape your own pottery. See and learn from Japanese techniques and styles.

‍

Calligraphy: Attend courses where you learn to create Japanese calligraphy while learning about Japanese language, way of thinking and Zen philosophy.

‍

Traditional Japanese film production: Visit Toei Kyoto Studio Park where you can experience sets from samurai films, learn about special effects and dress up in traditional costumes.

Woodcuts and Ukyo-e: Ukyo-e is a traditional Japanese art form known for its colorful woodcuts. We visit a workshop where we get to see both process and artwork. Perhaps there will also be opportunities to test the technique.

‍

Architecture and garden art: We visit Japanese temples and teahouses, and we visit gardens known for their beauty and their ability to create a sense of tranquility.

‍

Textile Crafts and Kimono: We visit the museum and workshop. Here we learn about Japanese textile tradition and see how textiles are woven. We can try to weave our own textile. We get to experience Kimono fashion shows. We can try to dress in traditional kimono.

‍

Japan has different standards of politeness and manners than we have in Norway. This we will familiarize ourselves with before departure and learn more about out on the trip.

We are going on a season where we will hopefully see the famous cherry trees in full bloom.

‍

Since 1960, they have hosted major tv/pc gaming tournaments in South Korea. This is a culture that really recognizes gaming and gamers. That's why we're going here, of course.

Since the late 90s, internet cafes have been popular in South Korea. Here, young people have been able to play for an hour for free, hang out with friends and compete. Today there are over 25,000 so-called PC Bangs in the country! The availability and absence of stigma has led to what we know today as the Mecca of eSports.

What else can you experience on this trip? We travel to Seoul when the cherry trees are blooming. It goes without saying that it is photo-friendly. We eat Korean street food, visit Kwangjang Market, and of course we visit LOL Park Seoul where we can experience the League of Legends Hall of Fame! Students, of course, get to decide what activities this tour will include. In short, a study trip to Seoul is the perfect experience for all esports lovers who want to explore a new culture together with good friends.

Lofoten consists of three main islands that are linked together by tunnels and bridges. In the east is Austvågøy, there we stop by Svolvær, Henningsvær and naturally do activities in the area. In the middle of Lofoten's islands range lies Vestvågøy with Leknes as the largest settlement. At Vestvågøy it is a little less steep, and one can do activities such as horseback riding along beautiful turquoise beaches, visit a Viking village and go some less demanding mountain hikes. Moskenes is the outermost of the three islands, and has the most dramatic scenery. Here lies Reinebringen, Å, Bunes stranda, Kvalvika, and many other dramatic natural areas. If there is no storm, maybe we can take a beginner surfing course at Unstad or Flakstad, which are two well-known surf beaches.

In addition to the line trip, we also have the opportunity to island hop on the Helgeland coast during the school year. Look forward to an exciting year in the North.
