The Oslo World Music Festival was founded by Concerts Norway (Rikskonsertene) in 1994. The general idea is to present a variety of music from Africa, Asia and Latin America, from classical traditions and folk music to urban, contemporary musical styles. Our aim is to show the richness in different music cultures.
The Festival is based on music performed by new, up-coming artists, as well as renowned artists invited from all over the world. It is also an ambition to initiate musical projects where Norwegian and guest musicians are working together. They also organize a big childrens festival within the fram of the Oslo World Music Festival.
