Editing Rogaland (section)

== Culture and tourism ==
A series of festivals and congresses of international fame and profile are arranged, such as The Chamber Music Festival, The ''Maijazz'' Festival, The Gladmat (lit. happy food) Festival, and The ONS event, which has been held in Stavanger every second year since 1974. The ONS is a major international conference and exhibition with focus on oil and gas, and other topics from the petroleum industry. The Concert Hall and Music Complex at Bjergsted and the Stavanger Symphony Orchestra provide important inspiration in the Norwegian musical environment. Another annual event in Stavanger is The World Tour Beach Volleyball. During this tournament, the downtown is converted into a beach volleyball arena.

Rogaland is home to many natural wonders, like [[Prekestolen]], [[Kjerag]] and [[Gloppedalsura]]. In Stavanger, there is an archeological museum with many artifacts from early history in Rogaland. An [[Iron Age]] farm at Ullandhaug in Stavanger is reconstructed on the original farm site dating back to 350–500 AD. The [[Viking]] Farm is a museum at Karmøy.
