The festival kicks off with Lebanese legend Marcel Khalife and a party featuring Moroccan artist Sami Galbi at Chateau Neuf. The closing concert at Sentrum Scene, headlined by Italian folk hero Jovanotti, promises to be legendary.

Between these events at two of Oslo’s premier venues, the city’s best stages will be filled with people and music from all corners of the globe: traditional music, club sounds, experimental rock, improvised music, Sufi, gamelan, flamenco, pop, rap, and desert blues.

This year’s highlights include Los Thuthanaka, Dubioza Kolektiv, Beverly-Glenn Copeland, Sanam Marvi, and Nana Benz du Togo—but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. You get to curate your own perfect Oslo World evening!

See you in the autumn darkness!
