From Portugal 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 Portugal it's a direct flight of about four hours from Lisbon to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Lisbon to Oslo
Direct flights to Oslo Airport leave from Lisbon every day and take just over four hours.
From Porto and Faro to Oslo
There are also direct flights to Oslo Airport from Porto, a few times a week in summer, and from Faro, on most days of the week. Both take about 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
Portugal and Norway are both in the Schengen area, but you must carry a valid passport or Citizen Card (Cartão de Cidadão). The old Bilhete de Identidade is no longer valid for travel. 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 mainland Portugal.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.
Your pass
Three passes: the Nordic Pass for bachata and zouk, or the Bachata or Zouk Pass.
- Thu 29 Jul from 16:00
- Nordic Pass €139 · Bachata Pass €110 · Zouk Pass €110
