His reason for becoming Festival ambassador, states Rasmussen, is that he believes the Festival is currently experiencing an exciting development. He wishes to contribute to the Festival fulfilling their vision of lifting the programme locally, nationally, and across borders.

The Iwona and Bjarne Rieber Charitable Foundation

They have contributed significant amounts to the Bergen International Festival throughout the years, with the desire that the festival continues to be an important cultural event for the people of Bergen and a boost for the cultural life both nationally and internationally.
The support is crucial as the Festival, through ambitious projects, connects tradition and renewal, challenges and delights the audience.
