The festival honours Finnøy's significant contribution to Norwegian tomato production, where almost 50% of the country's tomatoes are grown.

• Market Day: Saturday is the main festival day with market stalls offering local food, activities and giveaways.
• Tomato Hunter: An exciting obstacle course developed in collaboration with Trolljeger AS, where participants test their strength, agility and teamwork skills. The course is suitable for both families and competition-orientated teams.
• Grieg's children's cookery school: Free cookery course for children aged between 8 and 14, where they learn to prepare dishes using local ingredients.
• Entertainment: Disco for primary school pupils, quiz competitions and concerts in Hesby church.
• Activities in the municipal park: Outside Innbyggartorget, activities are organised in collaboration with local players, including reading sessions for children, archaeological exhibitions and musical performances from the culture school.

For visitors to Stavanger, the Tomato Festival is an excellent opportunity to experience local culture, food and community in beautiful surroundings.
