Halloween in Norway: 6 events for 31 October and 1 November

Halloween falls on a Saturday this year. In Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, Stavanger and Askim, you can choose from family workshops, a walk among spooky characters or an evening party. We selected 6 events for 31 October and 1 November 2026 — including times, admission rules and information on who they are intended for. Not all attractions are suitable for the youngest children. Some organisers separate a calmer family programme from evening attractions for older children and adults. For ticketed events, check availability before you go.

Norsk Folkemuseum in Bygdøy invites visitors on 31 October and 1 November, from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. During the day, the programme draws on the Mexican Día de los Muertos, with music and creative family workshops. Later, more intense attractions featuring ghosts and characters from old beliefs take over. The programme includes activities for the whole family, attractions recommended for ages 8 and up, and an area open only to those aged 12 and over. Visitors aged 0–17 enter free of charge, while an adult ticket costs NOK 200. The museum is located at Museumsveien 10. Details of the individual zones are provided by Norsk Folkemuseum.

Fløyen and Fyllingsdalen Teater are organising the woodland trail “Hekser & fjaseri” on Saturday, 31 October, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. The Saturday programme is recommended for those aged 7 and over. Witches and other characters will appear along the trail, which leads to Skomakerdiket. Participation is free and no registration is required. The starting point is at Fløyen Aktiv, above the playground. The organiser asks visitors to enter the trail no later than 7:30 p.m. The Fløibanen funicular ride is charged separately. An optional, scarier branch is not suitable for prams or dogs. The organiser’s information on Fløyen can help you plan your visit and journey.

Justismuseet at Erling Skakkes gate 80 invites visitors on 31 October, from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. Children will have a Halloween mystery to solve. The task is designed for children who can already read independently and takes around 30 minutes. Admission is free and no ticket is required, but every child must be accompanied by an adult. The doors close at 7 p.m., so it is worth arriving with time to spare. Justismuseet’s programme on Visit Trondheim includes event details.

Good Omens at Fjordgata 60 opens its doors on 31 October at 4 p.m. The party will continue until 3:30 a.m., with the winner of the best costume competition announced at around 10 p.m. Admission is free, but the age limit is 20 and valid identification is required. A costume is not mandatory. The organiser promises Halloween-themed music; Visit Trondheim publishes the party details.

Utopia and Tom And Lello are organising “Haunted House” at Fiskepiren on Saturday, 31 October from 9 p.m. DJs, shows, costumed characters and visual effects are planned. The event is for people aged 18 and over. Tickets are required. You can check the current price and availability on the organiser’s website. The venue is Fiskepiren 1 in Stavanger.

At Askim Folkepark, two versions of a spooky trail have been prepared for Saturday, 31 October. The youngest children can come from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., while the programme for older participants runs from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.. Participation is free. Entry is from the gravel pitch side, and the gates close at 8 p.m. The times and trail description can be found in the Halloween in Askim announcement.

For outdoor events, wear clothing suitable for the weather and place reflectors on the outer layer of the costume. A cape may cover the reflectors a child usually wears on their jacket. Our guide to Halloween reflectors offers tips on how to position and check them. Programmes checked on the morning of 31 October. Times are given in Norwegian time, which is the same as in Poland.
