That’s helped attract a record number of visitors, just as the film sets attendance records of its own. The museum also was ready to roll out new programs timed to the film’s release and has been promoting and showing the original documentary that actually won an Academy Award nearly 60 years ago.
Museum officials had hoped for positive effects from the film and can now confirm a steady stream of visitors and higher admission revenues. The Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo is enjoying a stream of new visitors following release of the new Kon-Tiki film. The interest it’s set off among the public is resulting in a badly needed burst of visitors at the museum that had been operating at a loss for the second year in a row. Not everyone agrees that the new film “Kon-Tiki” should be Norway’s candidate at the Academy Awards in Hollywood, but Oslo’s Kon-Tiki Museum is riding high on its wave of success.
