Davidsen first came to fame in 2015 when she won several competitions, including the Queen Sonja Competition in her native Norway. For this momentous occasion, Davidsen returns to Oslo’s picturesque Oscarshall, where she performed following her victory.
The livestream will take place at 1pm Eastern / 10am Pacific. Broadcasting live from Oscarshall, Oslo, Norway.
