Upcoming events in Oslo and Akershus
Tons of Rock at Ekebergsletta
24–27 June
Shuttle bus
We’ll take you straight to the rock with our own shuttle bus between Oslo city centre and Ekebergsletta.
The shuttle bus departs from platform 19 at Oslo S. There will be three bus departures every 5 minutes from here.
We’ve also thought about your trip home. There will be three buses running between Ekebergsletta and Jernbanetorget every 2 minutes.
Extra capacity on the tram
Additional trams will be put into service on lines 13 and 19 between Holtet and Jernbanetorget after the concert is over.
Detour for bus 74
Bus 74 will have a new route between 22 June and 5 July. This is due to several events at Ekeberg during this period. Bus 74 will run via Ryenbergveien, Enebakkveien, E6 – Sandstuveien during this period.
The bus will not stop at these stops:
Simensbrekka, Utsikten, Brannfjellveien, Ekeberg camping, Ekeberghallen.
It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it!
Pride parade in Oslo
27 June
On the day of love, trams and buses give way to the Pride parade on Saturday, June 27.
When and where does the parade take place? The parade starts at 12:00 from Grønland and goes to Pride Park at Kontraskjæret. The parade takes about 3–4 hours.
All tram lines as well as bus lines 30, 31, 34, 37, 54, 60, 70, 74 and 81 will be rerouted between 10:00 and 18:00. Bus lines 37 and 60 will be rerouted from 08:00.
The metro is running as normalthrough the city centre and is the safest option on this day. Allow plenty of time and check your journey in advance in the journey planner.
This year, just like last year, you can also follow the Pride parade in the Ruter app.
Enjoy the day, and happy Pride!
