From the Faroe Islands to Nordic in Oslo
Nordic is a bachata and zouk festival in Oslo, with both styles equal, from Thursday 29 July to Monday 2 August 2027 at Sentralen. From the Faroe Islands it's a direct flight of just under two hours from Vágar to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Vágar to Oslo
Atlantic Airways flies direct from Vágar Airport to Oslo Airport twice a week, in just under two hours, so plan your trip around its flight days. On other days, you can change planes in Copenhagen.
From Oslo Airport to Sentralen
The airport train takes about 20 minutes to Oslo Central Station, and Sentralen, at Øvre Slottsgate 3, is a 10-minute walk from there.
ID
Danish citizens from the Faroe Islands don't need a passport to fly to Norway. On flights within the Nordic countries, Atlantic Airways accepts valid photo ID, such as a driving licence. But bring your passport if you can: Atlantic Airways recommends it, and so does the official Nordic advice, because a passport shows your citizenship if there's a check. If you're not a Nordic citizen, bring your passport or national ID card and check the rules for your passport on udi.no.
Money and time
Norway uses Norwegian kroner (NOK), not Danish or Faroese kroner. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, and very few places take cash only. Oslo is one hour ahead of the Faroe Islands.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.
