Kristiansand is making its mark on the live music map, notably as the origin of the Punktfestivalen, an international event pioneering the "Live Remix" concept where performances are remixed immediately on stage. The city hosts a range of performance spaces from the acoustically lauded Kilden Performing Arts Centre and the large KRS Live to the more intimate Teateret and popular nightlife spots like Kick Cafe. This coastal Norwegian city has a musical history that includes the influential Quart Festival, which placed Kristiansand on the map for young audiences in the 90s, and it's home to bands spanning progressive metal like Green Carnation and Communic, to punk with Honningbarna, and independent artists like kapri.
