Nor-Fishing 2024. Nor Fishing has been an important national and international meeting place for the fisheries industry. Today it is one of the largest fisheries technology exhibitions in the world. In recent years, the exhibition has drawn around 15 000 visitors from about 50 countries. Innovations of importance to all sectors of the industry are presented here.

Nor-Fishing 2024 will be a three-day trade fair, held from Tuesday 20^th to Thursday 22^nd of August. The decision was made by the Board of the Nor-Fishing Foundation, after multiple requests from the exhibitors.

Moving forward, both Nor-Fishing and its sister exhibition Aqua Nor becomes three-day exhibitions. The Board agrees with the feedback from exhibitors, that the change will improve the overall quality of the exhibition – resulting in three compact trade fair days, filled to the brim with memorable experiences.
