A tech-enhanced live experience

A 12 month project, the event was lead by Executive Producers DREINULL and directed by Battle Royal Studios. Combining local traditions with the latest technologies, the Opening Ceremony delivered the finest choreographic moments on and around a 130 meter high ski jump.
