This year, ten scientists from nine nationalities across three continents are being recognized for research that has transformed their fields.

We are proud to celebrate the 2026 laureates and their extraordinary contributions to scientific discovery and human knowledge.

In april we visited Arizona🇳🇴🇺🇸

Arizona is one of the 13 states within our consular district, and the visit provided a valuable opportunity to strengthen connections with the local Norwegian community.

During the visit, we were warmly received at Luke Air Force Base, where Norwegian pilots and flight technicians are trained. We were given a tour and a great briefing, where we saw the F-35 in operation, and shared information about the work of the Consulate in supporting Norwegians living or staying abroad.

We also had a productive meeting with the Honorary Consul in Arizona, together with the Seamen’s Church priest Margit Lovise Holte, where we discussed ongoing cooperation and local engagement🤝

Arizona is a remarkable state, known for its stunning natural landscapes and as the home of the Grand Canyon🌵🏜️🌄

Thank you for excellent meetings, we look forward to returning!

Norwegian artist Håkon Kornstad is coming to San Francisco 🇳🇴🎷

As part of his 2026 U.S. solo tour, Kornstad brings his unique fusion of jazz and opera to SFJAZZ Joe Henderson Lab on April 18 (7:00 & 8:30 PM).

Originally known as one of Scandinavia’s leading jazz saxophonists, Kornstad later trained as an opera singer and now combines both worlds in a truly distinctive performance. Using looping techniques, tenor sax, and his operatic voice, he creates a rich and immersive one-man musical experience.

Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience Håkon live in San Francisco!

Congratulations to the team behind Sentimental Value! 🎬✨

Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value has won the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film — the first time a Norwegian feature film has received this honor!✨

Never before has Norwegian film had such a strong presence at the Oscars! This year Norway received a record of 11 nominations across several categories. Sentimental Value alone was nominated for nine Oscars, including Best Picture and Best International Feature Film. The Ugly Stepsister, directed by Emilie Blichfeldt, was nominated for Best Makeup and Hairstyling, and Espen Nordahl at Norwegian VFX company Storm Studios received a nomination for Best Visual Effects for Sinners

“I’m just a film nerd from Norway,” Trier said from the stage during his acceptance speech. He also referenced the American writer James Baldwin, reminding the audience that “all adults are responsible for all children” ; a gentle nudge to take our responsibilities seriously.

During Oscar week, the Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco has been present in Hollywood celebrating this milestone moment for Norwegian cinema. Yesterday we joined the Oscar screening hosted by at Andaz West Hollywood. Thank you for a great evening! ✨

🎬 Norway at the Oscars

Norwegian film has a historic presence in Hollywood this year with 11 Academy Award nominations.

Representatives from the Norwegian Consulate General in San Francisco are also in Los Angeles to support the Norwegian nominees and strengthen collaboration between the Norwegian and U.S. film industries. 🇳🇴🇺🇸

A proud moment for Norwegian film and for the incredible creative talent bringing our stories to the world stage. 🎬✨

The Academy Awards ceremony takes place tomorrow, and we wish all the nominees the very best of luck! 🏆🎭
