Risør By

About the project

Risør By is strengthening the region’s digital tourism landscape through a partnership with GoTo HUB. As part of Visit Southern Norway, Risør acts as a local hub within the larger destination. This collaboration gives local tourism businesses a unified platform to promote and sell their offerings while enabling cross-selling and cooperation within a connected digital marketplace of bookable experiences.

Risør By’s mission is to develop the town as an attractive and sustainable destination through unique experiences, events, and activities, while showcasing it as a charming place to live and visit. Working with the municipality, local businesses, residents, and visitors, Risør By encourages more people to discover the town’s unique offerings.
