The Best Markets in Oslo, Norway
Sure, the weather doesn’t always allow it, but if Norwegians know anything, it’s how to navigate their daily lives despite the weather – and the street market culture of Oslo is a good example of that. Although not that many in number, in Oslo’s markets you’ll be able to shop at affordable prices, get fresh produce and find unique, vintage treasures – from clothing to bric-a-brac. Most of them are evergreen (open on specific days, for the most part of the year), but keep your eyes open as there are many pop-up markets appearing every now and then.

Sunday market at Blå
Every Sunday, a colourful flea market takes over the artistic venue and hotspot Blå in trendy Grünerløkka. At Søndagsmarkedet you’ll have the chance to peruse handmade items, vintage clothing and accessories, bric-a-brac and homeware and even works of art made by local artists. All while enjoying the cool street art adorning the neighbourhood walls.
Bondens Marked
Blink, and you might miss it. This farmer’s market in Oslo likes to keep you on your toes, appearing at a different place every week (usually Saturdays and Sundays, from 10am to 5am) – so the best thing to do is keep an eye on their website for their next location. No matter where you catch them, though, you’ll be sure to find local produce, succulent cheeses, bottled juices from small-scale producers and all things healthy and organic.
