Kulturelt Smågodt: 1990-tallet på Haugalandet - Norheim kulturhus

In this version of cultural treat, the 1990s is the theme - the decade began with unemployment in the region at over ten per cent and interest rates at around 15 per cent. The oil price was 11 dollars a barrel and the banking crisis led to the country's major commercial banks going bust. The 1990s was the golden age of the Haugesunds Avis newspaper, with a circulation of almost 40,000, and TV Haugaland started its first broadcasts. The EU issue dominated the political agenda, and we started sorting our rubbish at source. The 1990s was also an exciting decade for culture and sport. This is the decade when Vamp started his career, and when two of the city's football teams joined forces to form FKH. Highlights in the transport sector include keywords such as Rennfast, Trekantsambandet and the new road through Åkrafjorden.
