This is where you’ll find useful information about the Øya Festival. These pages will be updated continously as the festival is approaching.

Opening hours:
The park opens at 1 pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. On Saturday the park opens one hour earlier, at 12.00. We close the entrance to the festival site at 10 pm, but you’ll want to get in earlier than that anyway. The last concert finishes at 11 pm, and then the party continues at several clubs in Oslo (see Øyanatt).

The Medieval Park and the ruins:
When you enter the festival site you’re on historic grounds, more precisely the place where the city of Oslo was founded a thousand years ago. You’re also entering an environmentally friendly zone, so remember that we all share a responsability to take care of the unique cultural memories inside the area.

Getting there:
The Medieval Park is only a ten minute walk from Oslo’s Central Station. Get there by foot, or by taking tram 18 or 19 or bus 34 to St. Halvards plass, or bus 70 or 74 to Dyvekes bro.

Age:
There’s no age limit at the festival site, but remember to bring a valid ID if you want to drink something stronger than mineral water. Children under 12 years of age get in for free if accompanied by an adult. You have to register the child at the festival entrance each day, regardless of your own type of ticket (pass, day ticket).

The age limits at Øyanatt, the nightly club programme, depends on the policy of the indivdual club.
