📋About
Øyafestivalen 2026: four days in an Oslo park, with sustainability as method
Norway's flagship runs 12 to 15 August 2026 in Tøyenparken, a city park in Oslo you can walk to from the centre — a choice that shapes everything else, since it lets the audience sleep at home instead of camping.
A front-rank 2026 bill
The official site announces The Cure, Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds and Wilco among the confirmed names, on a bill that traditionally mixes international headliners with the Scandinavian scene, from pop to electronic and indie pop.
Ticketing built around age and day
Rather than a single pass, the official grid offers a four-day pass in standard, under-18 and under-23 tiers, a weekday pass (Wednesday-Thursday), a weekend pass (Friday-Saturday) and single-day tickets.
On the environmental side the festival displays its certifications on the site itself — organic labels and Norwegian "environmental lighthouse" (Miljøfyrtårn) status — and highlights food vendors who "make food with consideration, for both people and the planet". It is one of the few European festivals to treat that as a supplier-selection criterion rather than a communications line.

❓FAQ
When does Øyafestivalen 2026 take place?
From Wednesday 12 to Saturday 15 August 2026 — four nights — in Tøyenparken in Oslo. Wednesday and Thursday had been sold out for months: after recounting capacity, the festival released a small batch of extra day tickets at NOK 1,699 including fees, going on sale at 10:00 every morning from Monday 10 August.
Which stages does the festival use?
The biggest stage is the Amfiet, where The Cure play on Wednesday 12 August at 20:30, Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds on Thursday 13 at 21:00, sombr on Friday 14 at 21:30 and Dagny on Saturday 15 at 21:30. The official site also refers to a second stage, Klubben, whose line-up was completed in the spring.
How can I avoid the queue at the gate?
Swap your ticket for a wristband in advance at Jernbanetorget, on Monday 10 August from 11:30 to 19:00 and Tuesday 11 August from 11:30 to 21:00; every ticket category is accepted there and photo ID is required. From Wednesday onwards, only festival passes and the day pass for that specific day can still be exchanged. Without the early swap, the festival advises arriving at least two hours before the first show you want to catch.
What is the food like?
Food is spread across five areas — Matområdet, Caltex, Munchløkka, Platået and Høyden — and the menu is heavily plant-based: tofu bánh mì at NOK 149, a Lion’s Mane mushroom burger at NOK 189, vegan empanadas at NOK 95, the Gazakjøkken falafel wrap at NOK 179, a Margherita pizza at NOK 180 or potato waffles at NOK 195. Allergens are listed dish by dish and a few items are gluten-free, such as Youngs Thai’s red curry with tofu at NOK 229. Full menus on the official website.
