A new year means new events across the world. Back in 2018, everyone seemed to be fascinated with cruises and nearly 30 million people took a cruise that year. In 2020 and 2021, it was all about live streaming global events from around the world — be it sports or entertainment.
As we approach 2022, you might be wondering what events to check out in the new year that match your lifestyle. Fortunately, 2022 is shaping up to be a brilliant year. Here’s a list of some of the best things happening in the world in 2022.

Norway’s Opening A New Museum — And It Will House ‘The Scream’
Edvard Munch’s The Scream (1893) is one of the most iconic images of art and is well cemented in popular culture. In the 1980s, Andy Warhol included The Scream in his series of silkscreen prints, and the mask from the slasher horror franchise Scream was inspired by Munch’s painting. The alien antagonists in the BBC’s 2011 Doctor Who series were also partially based on The Scream.
Almost everywhere we look, there’s some homage to The Scream. And in 2022, you have the chance to see this iconic painting in real life when Norway opens its brand new museum. On June 11, 2022, the new National Museum of Norway will open, becoming the largest art museum in the Nordics.
The UK’s Going To Keep Throwing Bingo Raves
2021 was the year of bingo raves in the United Kingdom, and they are not going anywhere anytime soon. We know you can play bingo online, but does the online version of the game also let you go to the UK and party as if you were in a nightclub while playing for prizes? No, it doesn’t.
However, Bada Bingo, a popular bingo party in the UK, offers these things. We’re talking neon strobe lights, confetti guns, and dancing. Bingo raves will become more and more mainstream in the new year, and you’re going to get serious FOMO if you never check out one while they’re still niche and a UK phenomenon.
The Netherlands Is Hosting Its Once-In-A-Decade Flower Exhibition
Every ten years, the Netherlands hosts its famous Floriade flower show. The 7th world horticultural exhibition returns this year, so, of course, you don’t want to wait another ten years before you get to see it. The 2022 flower show will take place in the city of Almere, and the theme is Growing Green Cities. The aim is to present visitors with creative, sustainable solutions. The event’s organizers also want to inspire individuals to live greener lives.
Travel means different things to different people. For instance, as previously covered, maybe traveling is your way of starting a business. It depends on what you’re trying to get out of it. If you’re trying to switch your daily routine and see/do new things, we suggest checking out the events on this list next year. They will expose you to culture, art, and most importantly, get you exploring new lifestyles.
