    April in Lillestrøm: daytime highs around 11 C (52 F), night-time lows near 1 C (34 F), roughly 59 mm of rain spread over 13 days. Snow can still fall early in the month, and days range from about 7 to 11 hours of daylight.

    Business etiquette

    Norwegians value punctuality, informal first-name address and flat hierarchies. Meetings start on time, small talk is brief, and a handshake is the standard greeting for both men and women.

    Dress for the venue

    Smart-casual business dress works for the halls, but April weather in Lillestrøm is cold and wet and the outdoor machinery arena can be muddy — bring waterproof layers and sturdy footwear, plus a warm layer for early starts.
