From Thailand 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 Thailand it's a direct flight of about 12 hours from Bangkok to Oslo Airport, then about 20 minutes on the airport train to Oslo Central Station, a 10-minute walk from the venue.
From Bangkok to Oslo
Thai Airways flies direct from Suvarnabhumi Airport to Oslo Airport every day. The flight takes about 12 hours.
From the rest of Thailand
From other Thai cities, change planes in Bangkok. Many low-cost domestic flights use Don Mueang, Bangkok's other airport, so if yours does, leave plenty of time to get to Suvarnabhumi.
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 Thai passport you need a Schengen visa to visit. Apply well ahead: you can apply up to six months before you travel, and udi.no explains how. Your passport must 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. If you don't have a Thai passport, check the rules for your passport on udi.no.
Money and time
Norway uses Norwegian kroner (NOK), not baht. Visa and Mastercard are accepted almost everywhere, and very few places take cash only. In summer, Oslo is five hours behind Thailand.
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.
