Baltic Sea Philharmonic – A Unique Nordic Orchestra
The Baltic Sea Philharmonic bridges geographical and historical boundaries by bringing together the most talented musicians from Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, Poland, Russia and Sweden. Nord Stream 2 became the main sponsor of the ensemble as one way to support this core region that is also home to our Project.
Founded in 2008 by the Usedom Music Festival and Nord Stream, the Baltic Sea Philharmonic has been promoting cross-border cooperation and integration for more than a decade.
The focus on the education of young musicians has always been a key factor in the success of this progressive project and its international concert tours. Under the direction of innovative and prolific conductor Kristjan Järvi, the ensemble has gained a reputation for its thrilling multi-media performances.

Europa-Park – Germany’s Largest Theme Park
Europa-Park is in the heart of Europe, some 60 kilometres from Strasbourg in the border triangle between Germany, Switzerland and France. With almost 6 million international visitors annually, it offers Nord Stream 2 the chance to familiarise a diverse audience with our Project to deliver energy to Europe.
One of Europa-Park’s most popular visitor attractions, the catapult roller coaster, is now the “blue fire Megacoaster powered by Nord Stream 2”. On the way to the ride, visitors pass through the newly designed “Nord Stream 2 Dome”.
Here they can enjoy a unique cinematic spatial experience – a journey through the world of Nord Stream 2 – on two giant LED screens of 25 x 3.6 metres. In addition to the Nord Stream 2 attractions, the park located in Rust, Germany has much more to offer: 15 European-themed areas that feature regional architecture, hospitality and vegetation for a special holiday flair. With over 100 attractions and shows, the park is known to exceed even the boldest expectations and guarantee a breath-taking experience for the entire family.
