'''Knutepunkt''' is an annual Nordic [[Larp con|role-playing conference on nordic style larp ]] which has been running since the first event in [[Norway]] in [[1997]]. It cycles through each of the nordic Nordic countries as hosts; in [[Sweden]] it's called '''Knutpunkt''', in [[Denmark]] '''Knudepunkt''' and in [[Finland]] '''Solmukohta'''. In English the translation would be ''meeting point'' or ''nodal point''.
Though the conference started out strictly as a an event for larp (Live action role-playing (larp for short) event, and it´s it's 3 founders [[Erlend Eidsem Hansen]], [[Hanne Grasmo]] and [[Margrete Raaum]] all were LARP larp organisers of [[360 degrees]] [[Nordic Style]] Larpslarps, [[Knutepunkt]] has since embraced role-playing games in a more general fashion. Today the conference still has an emphasis on larp, but programs devoted to educational larping, freeform, blackbox larps, game theory and traditional tabletop role-playing as well as newer arrivals such as freeform are common.
