From Ireland 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 Ireland it's a direct flight of just over two hours from Dublin to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Dublin to Oslo
Direct flights to Oslo Airport leave from Dublin about twice a day and take just over two hours. Dublin is the only airport in Ireland with direct flights to Oslo.
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
Ireland isn't in the Schengen area, so you go through passport control when you land in Norway. Irish citizens don't need a visa and can travel with a valid Irish passport or passport card. 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 ahead of Ireland.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.

Three passes: the Nordic Pass for bachata and zouk, or the Bachata or Zouk Pass.
