"I think this will be a terrific gathering place, both for those who want to read and draw and for those who want to express themselves with music and dance," said Crown Prince Haakon
Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess also visited the sports facility Furuset Forum and Alna School - a leadership program that has given young people between 18 and 25 years training in community leadership. In 2012  the King also paid a visit to Alna School.

The Crown Prince Couple's visit concluded when they visited the World Park in Furuset, a name given to reflect the cultural diversity in the district. The park was finished in 2014 - in part designed for input from the community, who wanted good meeting places outdoors.

The couple were given a show on the parkour obstacle course, where one should be able to get from A to B in the most efficient way.
