For over 20 years, Tomatfestivalen has brought together children and adults, tomato producers, and the local business community for a vibrant gathering on Finnøy. Now, we in TEAL are excited to take on the responsibility as the new coordinator of this cherished festival.
For the past two years, the festival has been organized by the event company Vella Mango, which has added its touch with new elements like Tomatjeger – an exciting obstacle course for children and young people. This addition also involves the local school in the festival’s opening, creating an important and engaging connection with the community. Due to other priorities, Vella Mango is now handing over the role as coordinator to us in TEAL.
“We are honored to be entrusted with leading the continued development of Tomatfestivalen. This festival is a wonderful example of how businesses and local communities can come together to create something truly special. We look forward to working with both the local community and the tomato producers to showcase the very best of Finnøy and Ryfylke.”
– Tove Sivertsen, CEO of TEAL
With our background in business development, food production, and tourism, we in TEAL are well-equipped to continue and enhance Tomatfestivalen. As a festival centered around tomatoes, we want to highlight the important role of tomato producers in shaping both the local community and the festival’s content. These producers are an essential part of what makes Finnøy and Ryfylke unique, and we are eager to collaborate with them to highlight their work and products.
Based in Judaberg, we know both the tomato industry and the local community well. The festival has a remarkable ability to bring people together to celebrate the best that Finnøy and Ryfylke have to offer. Collaboration with tomato producers, sponsors, volunteers, and the wider community will be key as we plan next year’s festival. We have many ideas for introducing new elements while preserving what makes Tomatfestivalen so special.
We are excited to be part of this cherished tradition and look forward to welcoming everyone to Finnøy next year. Together, we will ensure that Tomatfestivalen remains a joyful celebration of food, community, and fun.
Welcome to Tomatfestivalen 2025!
