Past events

Regional Night

Interested in Italian food, wine and culture?

Curious about everything Italy has to offer?

Every autumn we host our regional event, the highlight of the year for many.

Over the past ten years, we’ve showcased the best of regions like Veneto, Lazio, and Emilia-Romagna—just to name a few.

In September 2023, Trentino-Alto Adige was on the menu, and in September 2024, Abruzzo took center stage.

Take a look at the photos, and don’t forget to register for the next regional event!

H - Ikis

During the years of the pandemic, we had to think creatively about the activities we could organize.

It became H-Ikis, trips out into the beautiful nature we have in the area. One of our former board members took responsibility for arranging relevant trips that everyone could participate in.

We started up again with H-Ikis in 2024 and will continue in 2025.

Newcomers

New to Stavanger?

​IKIS offers you a brief introduction to your new place of study or residence... and, as always, we treat you to pizza!
Our first introduction evening took place in September 2023, where we invited several speakers to help newcomers get off to a great start.
We repeated the event in August 2024, and going forward, this will be an annual activity. Erasmus students from Italy studying at UIS, along with other newcomers, can look forward to a warm and informative welcome.
Check out the videos from the August 2024 event here.

Language Exchange

In the spring of 2023, we launched an entirely new initiative, which we continued in 2024.

Once a month, we host a language exchange in the lovely premises of Sølvberget, Stavanger Library and Cultural Center.
Participants who wish to practice Italian and Norwegian meet here. The evening is divided into 45 minutes of Norwegian, followed by a short pizza break, and then 45 minutes of Italian... or vice versa.
We are pleased to announce that this initiative will continue in 2025.

Italian Kulturkafée

 

For many years, IKIS has been spreading the joy of Italian cuisine through the Kulturkaféen, as it is now known. Previously located in Brødregata, it has since been relocated to Sølvberget, Stavanger Library and Cultural Center.
At Kulturkaféen, you can enjoy dishes with roots from all over the world, hosted by Stavanger's cultural associations and organizations.
