From Switzerland 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 Switzerland it's a direct flight of about two and a half hours from Zurich to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Zurich to Oslo
Direct flights to Oslo Airport leave from Zurich and take about two and a half hours.
From Geneva and Basel to Oslo
Geneva has direct flights to Oslo Airport on most days of the week, also about two and a half hours. Basel has direct flights twice a week in summer.
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. Check which airport your flight lands at: some low-cost flights land at Sandefjord Torp, about 110 km south of Oslo, and from there the train or the Torpekspressen coach takes about 1 hour 35 minutes.
ID
Switzerland and Norway are both in the Schengen area, but you must carry a valid passport or Swiss identity card. If you're not a Swiss, EU or EEA citizen, check the rules for your passport on udi.no.
Money and time
Norway uses Norwegian kroner (NOK), not francs or euros. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, and very few places take cash only. Oslo is on the same time as Switzerland.
Where to stay
Stay anywhere central: Oslo is compact, and most central neighbourhoods are 5–20 minutes from Sentralen on foot or by tram.
