From Morocco 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 Morocco it's a direct flight of about five hours from Marrakech to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Marrakech to Oslo
Norwegian flies direct from Marrakech to Oslo Airport twice a week, and the flight takes about five hours.
From Tangier to Oslo
Norwegian also flew direct from Tangier to Oslo Airport once a week in summer 2026. It hasn't said yet whether the route comes back in 2027, so check before you plan around it.
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.
Passport and entry
Norway is in the Schengen area, and with a Moroccan passport you need a Schengen visa to visit. Apply well ahead: you can apply up to six months before you travel. Your passport must have been issued within the last 10 years and be valid for at least 3 months after the day you leave. At the border you may be asked for your fingerprints and a photo, for the EU's Entry/Exit System. ETIAS, the travel authorisation the EU is bringing in, is only for visitors who don't need a visa. If you don't have a Moroccan passport, check the rules for your passport on udi.no.
Money and time
Norway uses Norwegian kroner (NOK), not dirhams or euros. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, and very few places take cash only. In late July, Oslo is one hour ahead of Morocco.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.
