“The turbans linked to this day not only help make our city more colourful, but they also create ties between different cultures and people in a time of increased polarisation within the public debate,” said initiator, Sumeet Singh.

The Turban Day also extends to Oslo Airport at Gardermoen, where all tourists can get their own turban.And if you have a turban, you can travel for free with the Flytoget Airport Express train.
