INFORMATION

Studentsamfunnet Driv is owned by Norges Arktiske Studentsamskipnad and is run on voluntary basis by students at the University of Tromsø. At any time there are approximately 100 active volunteers in our organization. Driv first opened on April 1st, 2000, and in January 2014 we were relocated to new facilities in Mack-kvartalet (Storgata 6). Our student house consists of 4 bars, three stages of different sizes, and a basement where we house our cultural department. The concert rate at Driv is one of the higher ones in Norway. Several thousands of students have volunteered at Driv since 2000. We offer dining on all weekdays and Saturdays. We serve simple dishes like hamburgers, sandwiches and salads. The kitchen is run by professional chefs, who are among the few paid employees at Driv.

GENERAL INFORMATION

Driv moved to new facilities in January 2014. We are now located in parts of the old Mack Brewery in Storgata 6.
