From Greece 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 Greece it's a direct flight of just under four hours from Athens to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Athens to Oslo
Direct flights to Oslo Airport leave from Athens about twice a day and take just under four hours.
From Crete to Oslo
Chania has direct flights to Oslo Airport at least once a day in summer, and Heraklion twice a week. Both take about four hours.
From Thessaloniki and the islands to Oslo
There are also direct flights to Oslo Airport from Rhodes several times a week in summer, and from Thessaloniki, Corfu, Santorini, Preveza (for Lefkada) and Kefalonia once or twice a week. They take about three and a half to four hours.
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
Greece and Norway are both in the Schengen area, but you must carry a valid passport or national ID card. The old-style Greek ID card is no longer valid for travel abroad, so bring the new ID card or a valid passport. If you're not an EU or EEA citizen, check the rules for your passport on udi.no.
Money and time
Norway uses Norwegian kroner (NOK), not euros. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, and very few places take cash only. Oslo is one hour behind Greece.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.
