Volumfestivalen was a cultural festival held in Elverum, Innlandet in Norway that contained music, literature, art, performing arts and film. The festival was first held in 2003. June 2018 saw the last year of the festival, and it was cancelled due to years of decrease in ticket sales. The festival provided a venue for both the student, emerging and professional artists and cultural mediators linked to Hedmark. Past acts at Volumfestivalen include: The Wombats, Cezinando, Unge Ferrari, Kristian Kristensen, Team Me, Ludvig Moon, Frida Ånnevik and Ingrid Olava.

The festival was run voluntarily by young people from around the Hedmark area. In 2010, Volumfestivalen received the Elverum Municipality Culture award. [1]
