About Vestlandslag:
The Vestlandslag is an umbrella organzation of eight bygdelag
(Hardangerlag, Møre og Romsdalslag, Nordhordlandslag /
Sunnhordlandslag, Rogalandslag, Sognalag, Sunnfjordlag, and
Vosselag). The members have roots in the counties of Møre og
Romsdal, Sogn og Fjordane, Hordaland, and Rogaland on the west
coast of Norway. As the interest in bygdelag were waning in the
late 1970s, members from Hardangerlaget, Nordhordlandslaget,
Vosselaget, and Sognalaget joined forces and founded
Vestlandslaget in 1979. They were later joined by
Rogalandslaget, Sunnhordlandslaget, Sunnfjordlaget, and Møre og
Romsdalslaget. A couple of these lag had been disbanded, but
were now able to be revived as part of Vestlandslaget. Each of
the lag meet during the annual stevne. President/Contact Person:
