Double concerts at Oslo World 2026
Oslo World 2026 offers a whole series of fantastic double concerts, most of them at a discounted price.
Tuesday, October 27: Marcel Khalife + Sami Galbi
This year, Oslo World’s opening night takes place at Chateau Neuf for the very first time. Every ticket for the legendary Marcel Khalife in Storsalen includes admission to a concert by Swiss-Moroccan party starter Sami Galbi at Betong immediately afterwards.
Wednesday, October 28: Nana Benz du Togo + Frente Cumbiero
Nasjonal Jazzscene presents two explosive live acts this Wednesday. In the music of Nana Benz du Togo, voodoo traditions meet the modern dance floor, with results that make it almost impossible to stand still. The same goes for Colombian quartet Frente Cumbiero, guaranteed to be a highlight for cumbia lovers across Norway.
Thursday, October 29: Mazaher + BCUC
The following day, Egypt’s Mazaher takes over Nasjonal Jazzscene. The group performs traditional Egyptian zar music, with roots in spiritual rituals and healing ceremonies. Later that evening, South Africa’s BCUC takes the stage. They were one of the major highlights of Oslo World in 2022, and now they’re finally returning.
Friday, October 30: Imarhan + Dirty Three
There are only a few double tickets left for this evening at Cosmopolite. Cult trio Dirty Three is one of the most popular names on this year’s lineup, but at the time of writing, tickets are still available. That means you can catch both Warren Ellis and one of the most exciting names in contemporary desert blues: Imarhan. You won’t want to miss this.
Saturday, October 31: Beverly Glenn-Copeland + Yerai Cortés
Many people are familiar with musical pioneer Beverly Glenn-Copeland’s beautiful Keyboard Fantasies from 1986. Here in Norway, perhaps fewer have heard of Yerai Cortés, but the young flamenco guitarist has already established himself as one of Spain’s most exciting new names. Six vocalists, one man and his guitar. Two very different, but equally beautiful concert experiences on the same ticket.
Saturday, October 31: Renata Flores + A.CHAL
New sounds from the Andes at Nasjonal Jazzscene! Peruvian Renata Flores raps and sings in Quechua and has become one of the most distinctive young voices in a new generation of Peruvian artists. Peruvian-American A.CHAL has also turned toward his roots in recent years, creating a musical universe where rap, alternative R&B and psychedelia meet.
