AURORA will headline Bergenfest Saturday, June 14 2025. 

The past few years, Bergenfest has concluded the festival with a Bergen-based artist as the main attraction, and in 2025, AURORA will take the stage as the final headliner on Saturday, June 14th!

AURORA has established herself as a distinctive and innovative artist since her debut album "All My Demons Greeting Me As A Friend" in 2016. Her creativity, uncompromising attitude, and unique ability to combine deeply personal lyrics with a wide range of musical styles have made her a favorite among both critics and fans.

After releasing the songs "Your Blood," "The Conflict of The Mind," "Some Type of Skin," and "To Be Alright," AURORA is finally back with her fifth studio album "What Happened To The Heart?". The album is a journey from weakness to strength, from self-destruction to self-healing, and is described by the artist herself as the "most personal and liberating album" she has ever made. From haunting folk melodies to techno beats, all the exciting collaborators (Ane Brun, Matias Tellez, Magnus Skylstad, Tom Rowlands from The Chemical Brothers, Chris Greatti, and Dave Hamelin) bring their unique style to the album.

"What Happened To The Heart?" has already received glowing reviews. NME, one of the world's largest music websites, writes: "The Norwegian art-pop sensation ups the ante on this epic career-high, throwing up shapes along with reasons to live and to love." AURORA is facing a very exciting new chapter in her career, and we can hardly wait to experience these songs live, especially as the grand finale of next year's festival program! What happened to the heart? It is looking forward to Bergenfest 2025!
